A Motivate Story of a Monkey

Friends, from childhood until now, we have been taught and conditioned with certain beliefs that have become ingrained in our minds, even though they may hold no real significance. These beliefs are prevalent not only in our schools and homes but everywhere around us.

So, what is this belief that I am talking about? You will understand everything in this story. Once, some monkeys were put in a cage, and a banana was hung from the top with some steps leading to it. As soon as some monkeys were placed in the cage, one monkey climbed the steps to reach the banana.

However, as soon as it tried to reach for the banana, all the monkeys were sprayed with cold water. This made the monkey climb down. After a while, another monkey attempted to get the banana, and the same thing happened - all the monkeys were sprayed with cold water. This continued, and all the monkeys learned that as soon as they try to climb the steps, they will be sprayed with cold water.

Then, one of the old monkeys from the cage was removed, and a new monkey was placed in the cage. The new monkey saw the banana and attempted to climb the steps to reach it. However, all the other monkeys beat it up, preventing it from reaching the banana.

The new monkey couldn't understand why it was being beaten up. It didn't know the reason behind this behavior. After some time, another old monkey was replaced, and another new monkey was introduced. The same thing happened again - the new monkey tried to climb the steps, and all the other monkeys beat it up, including the one that had been beaten before and didn't know why.

Gradually, all the old monkeys were removed from the cage, and only new monkeys remained. The bucket of cold water that was used to spray them was also removed. Now, when a new monkey tried to reach the banana, all the other monkeys still beat it up, even though they had no experience of the cold water punishment.

In the end, none of the monkeys knew why they were beating up any monkey that attempted to climb the steps. It had become a learned behavior passed down from the previous generation without any real reason.

Similarly, we humans often discourage others from pursuing their dreams or ideas. We tell them things that demotivate them, but we ourselves don't know why we do it. We say things like, "In this day and age, no one has achieved success without luck" or "No matter what you do, your business will fail." These are distractions, just like the bucket of cold water in the monkey's cage.

However, we must remember that times change, and the past does not define the present or the future. Instead of getting caught up in what others say, we should focus on our goals and keep climbing the steps toward success. Don't be deterred by the distractions or the negative opinions of others. Stay focused and determined, and one day, you will achieve your dreams and prove the naysayers wrong.

In conclusion, let go of the beliefs and distractions that hold you back. Embrace the present and stay determined to reach the top of your ladder of success. The world will see your achievements one day if you keep striving forward with confidence.
