true break grow because little |
A man walking through an elephant camp was surprised to find that the elephants were tied by a small piece of rope. Why didn't the elephants just use their power to the rope and run away? Wanting to know the , he asked a trainer nearby why it was so.
"When they were very young and much smaller, we used the same size of rope to tie them, and at that age, it was enough to break them. As they up, they still believed that they couldn't break away. Even now, they believe the rope can still control them, so they have the courage to try to break free," the trainer answered.
The man was speechless. How many of us are like the elephants—believing that it was beyond(超越) our ability to do something only we failed once or sometimes before?
Failure is part of learning. If we fail at something, we can still get something from it. We should keep on trying with confidence ourselves even after we have failed in life.
