So What Do Adult Elephants And Your Personal Development Have In Common?

Have you ever seen something in (either) your business and or personal life, that you just thought was flat out strange and or odd? Even backwards if you will? Not to be judgmental or anything. But just strange.

For ex; why or how in the world, does a 16 year old HS sophomore get elected as mayor of a town, (when) first of all, aren’t they technically too young to even hold public office?

But closer to home still. With a town full of (supposedly) capable, intelligent adults and professional career politicians! How does something like this happen? (Repeatedly!) No less.(Just saying!)

Okay, but that rather strange turn of events not withstanding. Can you even begin to understand and or totally appreciate the unfortunate connection between a full blown adult elephant and your current and or long term personal development? Say what?

Hold on… Because it’s not quite as far fetched and or as unrelated as it might initially appear. And it’s certainly no more far fetched than a two term incumbent mayor that’s still under the age of twenty! Yes, there are some things that simply defy logic.You be the final judge…

 

So There’s Actually Suppose To Be Some Kind Of Plausible Connection Between A Full Blown Adult Elephant And Your Current And Or Future Long Term Personal Development?

(Really?)

First of all lets clear something up, right out of the gate. There is absolutely no ill will towards teenagers in general and or 16 year old’s in particular. But mayor, at that age? Really!

That said; here’s the hub.Ladies & gentlemen, do you have any idea (without Googling it!), what the average weight of a full blown adult elephant is? Or how about the average weight of your typical one year old baby elephant? (Irregardless of their gender.)

Well, believe it or not, the typical adult elephant weighs an astounding 12,000 Lbs! And the one year old baby elephant typically weighs (one tenth) of that amount. Or about 1,200 Lbs.(Pretty staggering either way, don’t you agree?)

So here’s the $64,000 dollar question; which is not a trick question BTW. If you had to make an educated guess, which of the two do you think is the strongest?The full blown adult or the one year old? Agreed!

Well now, perhaps you can (realistically) explain the following rather odd set of circumstances.

Adult elephants (that would be the 12,000 pound ones!) are typically tied to a rather flimsy wooden stake (that’s not driven too deep into the ground)  and held with a really thin piece of yarn! Say what?

While the one year old, is typically tied to a solid metal stake that’s driven (usually) at least one or two feet into the ground!Huh?  And held in place with a rather thick solid metal chain.

 Are Your Self Imposed Obstacles Really Chains Or Merely Strands Of Yarn?

And truth told (Hercules) on his best day would probably have trouble escaping. Now here’s the question. Entrepreneur, doesn’t (both) your gut and (good old) common sense say, they’ve got this scenario backwards?

After all, given the choice! Would you rather take your chances against a full grown 12,000 LB adult elephant on the war path or the less experienced 1,200 LB youngster?

Exactly! So what’s up with this? It’s very simple.

You see; (many, many) years ago, that adult elephant (when they) were an untrained youngster. That very same metal stake and chain, was used to hold them in place! Huh?

So that  (even though) as they continually grew physically over time. They struggled and struggled to get free! Until finally guess what? Once they became full blown (extremely) capable adults!

With way more physical strength than perhaps even Hercules! (Or at least close!) They simply believed that any time something was placed around their neck, they couldn’t break free!  (No matter what!) Even if that something was no more powerful than a mere piece of yarn! Say what?

Now then; contrast that to the (yet to be) trained ( more like conditioned) one year old youngster.They haven’t been totally conditioned yet! Have they?  Bingo! Which (dear profit seeking entrepreneur) brings us full circle, doesn’t it?

You see, (believe it or not!) throughout the years, you and I have constantly been told (more like) conditioned  (bombarded if you will!) (by so called) well meaning friends, family members,loving parents, teachers, respected religious clergy, ex’s, significant others,in law’s, spouses, best friends, associates, current or ex – employers, or ex-well meaning co-workers etc.

About all the things that we simply “can’t” or “shouldn’t do!” Right?Don’t start that business, now’s not the right time etc. Every time you try something new you fail! Or don’t be involved with or marry that person etc! You’re not an entrepreneur! You’ll always have to work for somebody else! The business world is too cut throat etc!

 If It’s Repeated Often Enough It Tends To Gradually Get Accepted As Fact!

(So Why Not Constantly Reinforce The Positive!)

And on and on! My friend, psychologically (over time) all that positive stimulus begins to have a rather profound effect! Would you not agree? So that after a while (years!) You and I (sadly) reach the point (mentally and emotionally) that no matter “what”  the current true potential opportunities are.

Just like the thin piece off yarn around that full fledged (fully capable) adult elephants neck, we’re mentally and emotionally chained (more like) imprisoned by false beliefs!

And that my friend (sadly) is the down right sinister connection between a full blown (mentally conditioned) adult elephant and your current and or future long term personal development! Any questions?
