This motivational story is a little sad, but it contains an invaluable lesson on self-belief…

The Elephant and the Rope

One day a man walked past a camp of elephants.

Looking closer, he was surprised to see that these mighty animals weren’t held in cages or kept in chains.

The only thing stopping them from escaping?

A thin rope tied from one of their legs to a simple pole in the ground.

Confused as to why they didn’t use their strength to break the rope, he asked the trainer why they weren’t attempting to run away.

To this the trainer replied,

“As baby elephants, we use the same system. But, at that age, the rope is strong enough to stop them from escaping. They grow up like this, believing they can never break the rope, so even as adults they stay put.”

In other words, these powerful, magnificent and intelligent elephants didn’t believe they could free themselves, so they never tried.

Moral of the story:

Our personal beliefs are powerful beyond measure and often dictate our outcomes. They can work for or against us.

Identify your limiting beliefs so you can push against them.

Angel Message for today:

Believe in yourself, and you’ll see miracles happen

You are not the only one who has problems. Like mushrooms pop up overnight, so do issues in our lives. Sometimes, they just come out of the blue. And this is when our determination and self-confidence come into play. So, rather than complaining against destiny or misfortune, start believing in yourself and your ability to solve your problems.

Be proud of who you are, and grow your self-confidence. As if by magic, you’ll become immediately able to face challenges and achieve the desired result. You have unlimited potential, and the time has come to unleash your power and start creating miracles!

If Opportunity does not knock build a door.
