No chains, no cages. It was clear that the elephants could break the rope at any time, but for sonic reason, they did not. He saw a trainer nearby and asked why the animals just stood there and didn39。t try to get away. Well, the trainer said, when they were very young and much smaller, we used the same rope to keep them from running away. At that age, it39。s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break tile rope. They believe it can still hold them, so they never try to break free. The man was surprised. These animals could break flee whenever they wanted, but because they believed they couldn39。t, they were stuck right where they were. How many of us go through life like the elephantsholding onto the belief that we cannot do something simply because we failed at it once before? Failure is a part of learning. If we failed once, it doesn39。t mean we can never succeed. If we try again and again, maybe we will succeed one day. So don39。t be afraid of failure and keep on trying.
