Frogs

    Once upon a time there was a bunch of tiny frogs.... who
    Arranged a running competition.

    The goal was to reach the top of a very high tower.

    A big crowd had gathered around the tower to see the

    race and cheer on the contestants....

    The race began....

    Honestly, no one in crowd really believed that the tiny

    Frogs would reach the top of the tower.

    You heard statements such as:

    "Oh, WAY too difficult!!"

    "They will NEVER make it to the top."

    Or:

    "Not a chance that they will succeed. The tower is too
    High!"

    The tiny frogs began collapsing. One by one....

    Except for those, who in a fresh tempo, were climbing

    Higher and higher....

    The crowd continued to yell,”It is too difficult!!! No one

    Will make it!"


    More tiny frogs got tired and gave up....

    ...
    But ONE continued higher and higher and higher....

    This one wouldn't give up!

    At the end everyone else had given up climbing the
    Tower. Except for the one tiny frog who, after a big effort,
    Was the only one who reached the top!

    THEN all of the other tiny frogs naturally wanted to
    Know how this one frog managed to do it?

    A contestant asked the tiny frog how he had found the

    Strength to succeed and reach the goal?

    It turned out....

    That the winner was DEAF!!!!

    The wisdom of this story is:
    Never listen to other people's tendencies to be negative or
    Pessimistic.... because they take Your most wonderful
    Dreams and wishes away from you -- the ones you have in
    Your heart!
    Always think of the power words have.
    Because everything you hear and read will affect your
    Actions!

    Therefore:

    ALWAYS be....

    POSITIVE!

    And above all:

    Be DEAF when people tell YOU that you cannot fulfill

    Your dreams!

    Always think:
    :
    God and I can do this!

    Pass this message on to 5 "tiny frogs" you care about.

    Give them some motivation!!!

    Most people walk in and out of your life......but FRIENDS


    Leave footprints in your heart

    Very nice inspirational story. it's true that most of the time people will try to discourage you, but if you are determined enough to succeed then no amount of discouragement will prevent you from reaching your goal :)

    At last, a really good lesson learned from DP's general chat section (The occasional "beware of scammers" lessons are excluded). :p One question though... do frogs really run?

    Being positive in everything that you do is the most important! You can reach everything, anything, if you just believe that you could!!!!!!!!

    Well said. You should be receptive to constructive criticism and insensitive to discouragement :)
