You Are What You Believe-The Elephant Rope
As a man was passing 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 their bonds but for some reason, they did not.
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away. “Well,” trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.”
The man 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?

其思即其人-栓象之繩
當(dāng)有個(gè)人經(jīng)過(guò)一群大象的時(shí),他突然停了下來(lái),他非常疑惑。因?yàn)檫@些巨大的生物被它們的前腿綁在一根小繩上拴著。沒有鎖鏈,沒有牢籠。很明顯,大象可以隨時(shí)掙脫他們的鐐銬,但由于某種原因,他們沒有。
他看到附近有一個(gè)馴獸師,問(wèn)為什么這些動(dòng)物只是站在那里,并沒有試圖逃跑?!昂冒桑苯叹氄f(shuō),“當(dāng)他們年幼時(shí),我們用同樣大小的繩子綁著他們,在那個(gè)年齡,這足以拴住他們。當(dāng)他們長(zhǎng)大后,他們習(xí)慣于相信他們無(wú)法逃跑。他們相信繩子仍然可以拴住他們,所以他們從來(lái)沒有試圖掙脫。”
這個(gè)人很驚訝。這些動(dòng)物可以隨時(shí)掙脫他們的鐐銬,但因?yàn)樗麄冋J(rèn)為自己不能,他們就只能被困在原地。
像大象一樣,我們中有多少人僅僅因?yàn)樽约涸?jīng)失敗過(guò),便在生活中相信自己不能做什么事情?
失敗是學(xué)習(xí)的一部分,我們不應(yīng)該在生活中放棄努力。
