POEM

YOU CAN DO UNBELIEVABLE THINGS

If you have belief

Belief can make you believe

AND

You can do unbelievable things.

If you don’t have belief

All your skill and strength

May be of no use

It will take you to no where

This you will certainly feel.

If you have belief in yourself

Everybody will believe you

Everybody will be in your support

Unbelievable energy, strength and stamina will flow

You will be more creative and active

Your results in all areas will glow.

The inner thing, the inner feeling, conviction and confidence

Makes the difference

Believe that good things will happen for you

It certainly happens so.

It’s surprising

You may not know how it happens

But – it happens so.

If you believe you can lead

Certainly you can be a leader.

If you think you can not do any thing

You may be a useless beggar.

Remember and forget not

Your mind matters

Your willpower matters

Your self confidence matters

They all come together

All come for your belief or belief system

To help you, which is unthinkable

AND

To help you to succeed for ever.

SHORT STORY – 1

BUSINESSMAN IN DEBT

One businessman was in debt and couldn’t figure out a way out of it. Creditors were pressing him. Suppliers were demanding for a payment. He was sitting on a bench in the park with his head down, thinking what could save the company from bankruptcy. Suddenly, an old man appeared in front of him.

– I see that something is bothering you, – he said.

After listening to the businessman, the old man said:

– I think I can help you.

He asked the businessman, what his name was, wrote him a check and said:

– Take this money. We will meet exactly in one year, and you will be able to return it to me at that time.

After that, he turned around and disappeared just as suddenly as he appeared.

The businessman saw a check in his hand for an amount of 500 thousand dollars, signed by John Rockefeller, one of the richest people in the world at that time!

‘I could end all my problems in no time!’ – He thought. But instead, the businessman decided to put the check into his safe. Only one thought about its existence gave him strength to find a solution to save his business. With the return of his optimism, he concluded profitable deals. During couples of months he got out of debt and started to earn money again.

Exactly one year later, he returned to the park with the same check. At the agreed time the old man appeared again. And at that moment, when the businessman wanted to return the check and to share his story o0f success, a nurse ran up and grabbed the old man.

– I am so glad, I caught him! – she exclaimed – I hope he wasn’t bothering you. He always runs away from the house and tells he is John Rockefeller.

The businessman was bemused. During the whole year he was spinning and building a business, buying and selling, convinced that he had half a million dollars. And suddenly he understood that it was not the money, real or imaginary, that turned his life up. It was his new confidence and belief that gave him strength to achieve that he had now.

SHORT STORY – 2

ELEPHANT ROPE

A gentleman was walking through an elephant camp, and he spotted that the elephant were not being kept in cages or held by the use of chains.

All that was holding them back from escaping the camp, was a small piece of rope tied to one of their legs.

As the man gazed upon the elephants, he was completely confused as to why the elephants didn’t just use their strength to break the rope and escape the camp. They could easily have done so, but instead, they didn’t try to at all.

Curious and wanting to know the answer, he asked a trainer nearby why the elephants were just standing there and never tried to escape.

The trainer replied:

“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 can not break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free”.

The only reason that the the elephants weren’t breaking free and escaping from the camp was that over time they adapted the belief that it just wasn’t possible.

This invention made them the pioneers in aviation and they record their names in the world history because of sheer power of belief.
