Just spare 10 minutes reading this article..... Might change the outlook of the beautiful life...........

Once a small boy went with his dad to the circus. While they were standing at the ticket counter, a baby elephant tied to heavy iron chains drew the boy's attention.

The baby elephant was trying its level best to break the iron chain and run away, but all his attempts were in vain. Just next to the baby elephant his mother was also tied. But she sat quiet without any movements. This increased the boy's eagerness and went and asked his dad,

" Dad breaking the iron chain is very difficult for the baby elephant, but not for his mother na?? Then why isn't she helping him to set it free????

After hearing this, his dad was speechless. He had no answer.

The circus manager who was standing besides heard this question.

He said,

"Look child, the mother elephant was brought here when she was very small and was tied with the same iron chain. Even when she was small she tried to break the chain but she was unable to do so. And after the unsuccessful attempts she brought her mind to a mindset that she cannot break the chain anymore and it is out of her strength. Today she can break 10 similar chains at a stroke but she isn't doing it just because of her mind set. And she might be laughing at her kid"

Dear friends, moral is:

Once if we make unsuccessful attempts we consider

that we can't do it ,,,,,,, But that's not the case..

As time changes,,, things also change so as our determination also.............

We are capable of doing each and every thing no matter how our past was or how difficult the task is.............

Remember nothing is yours but future is yours. The only thing you need to do is

TRY!!!!

So it is truly said,,,,,

"You are never a loser,

until you quit trying........."

Is this the reason that JEE has ruled out only 2 attempts????
