2) Two Frogs With The Same Problem

Once, a group of frogs was roaming

around the forest in search of water. Suddenly, two frogs in the group
accidentally fell into a deep pit.

The other frogs worried about their friends in the pit.

Seeing how deep the pit was, they told the two frogs that there was no
way they could escape the deep pit and that there was no point in
trying.

They continued to constantly discourage them as the two frogs tried to

jump out of the pit. But keep falling back.

Soon, one of the two frogs started to believe the other frogs — that
they’ll never be able to escape the pit and eventually died after giving
up.

The other frog keeps trying and eventually jumps so high that he
escapes the pit. The other frogs were shocked at this and wondered
how he did it.
The difference was that the second frog was deaf and couldn’t hear the
discouragement of the group. He simply thought they were cheering
him on!

Moral of the story

People’s opinion of you will affect you, only if you believe it to be so.
It’s better to believe in yourself.
