And the 5 questions to help you identify them and break free.
When elephants are young, living in a circus or a zoo, they are tethered with a chain around their leg that restrains them from moving far. Initially, the baby elephant will pull and tug at its chain trying to free itself, but eventually, after some time, the elephant will learn that escaping is futile, that no matter how hard it tries it remains imprisoned and thus gives into the restraint, for good.
Yes, for good.
You see, from that point on, the elephant is convinced that there is no way to break free. And even-though a fully grown elephant, could easily walk away, snapping its chain, without breaking a sweat, it still believes to be as much a prisoner as when it was a little baby and therefore doesn't even think of trying to escape.
And that's what got me thinking.
