When a young elephant is tied by the foot to a stake, it learns to stop pulling once it feels resistance. Years later, even when only a rope remains — no stake, no restraint — it still believes itself bound. The memory of limitation becomes stronger than the rope itself.
Humanity is much the same. We act as if we are still tethered — by fear, by habit, by the way things have always been done. Yet when we test the rope, we find that the post was removed long ago. The power to move, to act, and to change the world has always been within reach.
