As one person was passing by the elephants, he suddenly 
stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures 
were being held by only a small rope tied to their front 
leg. No chains, no cages. It was obvious that the elephants 
could, at anytime, break away from the ropes they were 
tied to but for some reason, they did not. 

That person saw a trainer nearby & asked why these 
beautiful, magnificent animals just stood there & 
made no attempt to run away. 

“Well,” he said, “when they are very young & much 
smaller we use the same size rope to tie them & 
at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow 
up, they are conditioned to believe that they cannot 
break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, 
so they never try to break free.” 

 

That person was amazed. These animals could at any time 

break free from their bonds but because they believed they 
couldn’t, they were stuck right where they were. 

Like the elephants, how many of us go through life 
hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply 
because we failed at it once before? So make an attempt 
to grow further…….Why shouldn’t we try it again…? 

Moral : 
“YOUR ATTEMPT MAY FAIL…., BUT 
NEVER FAIL TO MAKE AN ATTEMPT IN LIFE…..! ” 

If u want something u never had, 
Do something which u has never did. 
Don’t go the way life takes U, 
Take the life the way U want to go. 
Remember UR born 2 live, 
Not living bcoz UR born……!!!
