Belief in yourself and Do not limit yourself

A Mahout who had two elephants. he want to train him for shows in a circus. He would tie them with a single light rope.

Since the elephants were huge in size it appeared that the elephants could break them anytime and run as they were very strong.

one day a man who happened to notice that the rope was not strong enough to hold the 2 elephants asked the Mahout why the elephants were not trying to escape.

The Mahout smiled and replied that the elephants were conditioned to believe that they are weak and that they can break the rope and run so they never tried.

Meaning: Do not limit yourself Like Elephants. Belief in yourself. Also you must tell your children that if they think they are strong and brave then that is enough to face any difficult situation.
