Friends
One more quick story to share with you.
"In a KinderGarten school based at USA, a teacher announced the kids to take a piece of paper and write what they can not do. In fact she had come with a box, put it up in a corner of the class room. She knew that kids always tell about so many thing what they do not like to do or can not do. So she thought of a great idea and hence told the kids to write every thing they can not do.
The kids followed the order and started writing so many things which they could not do like they can not do the mathematics sums, wake up early for coming to school, having break fast in the morning , drinking milk, home work to be done at home, remembering the chapters of science and history etc. etc...... Even so many kids wrote about what they don't like to do but still have to do. Then the teacher asked all the kids to fold the list and put into the box. When all the kids dropped the list into the box, the teacher told one of the kid to take the box and also that all the students should follow her. Teacher took the class to a corner of the play ground put the box on one side and then instructed some of the students to dig a pit of 2ft. deep on the ground. Once the ground was dug, she asked all the students to make a circle around the pit and then said "Kids, today you have put all the things which you can not do and there is nothing except these which you can not do. So We all putting this box in this pit and putting the Cant DO to the rest forever. From now on wards none of the students would complain of cant do because we have put to rest the list of cant do." All the kids nodded in affirmation and then the box was put into the pit and again covered with sand. A small flag was put on the covered pit mentioning that "Cant Do put to rest by the students of class ..... on dated ...."
Since then the students of her class who buried the list of cant do have nothing which is impossible. The mind of kids was washed with the thought of cant do nad filled Can do.
Friends this story encourages us to bury the list of cant do.
