    The document tells a story about how elephants are tied with rope as children and conditioned to believe they cannot break free, even as the rope is no longer sufficient to hold them as adults. This illustrates how beliefs can limit what one thinks is possible. The moral is that one should always maintain a belief that success is possible, as believing in one's abilities is important for achieving goals, no matter the obstacles. The story also describes a situation in Italian town where a business owner owes money to a loan shark who desires his daughter, requiring creative thinking to resolve.

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

    Moral of the story:

    No matter how much the world tries to hold you back, always continue with the belief that
    what you want to achieve is possible. Believing you can become successful is the most
    important step in actually achieving it.

    9. Thinking Out of the Box (Creative Thinking)

    In a small Italian town, hundreds of years ago, a small business owner owed a large sum of
    money to a loan-shark. The loan-shark was a very old, unattractive looking guy that just so
    happened to fancy the business owner’s daughter.
