Episode Synopsis

The #Barrier Within: A Story of Overcoming #SelfDoubt !

Hi, as it's Sunday today, let's come out of our #setbacks and start anew!

Let's dive into a tale of how setbacks can make us easily #giveup.

Once, a scientist put a shark in a tank with bait fish. The shark quickly attacked and ate the fish.

But then, the scientist added a clear partition in the tank, separating the shark from new fish. The shark tried to attack again, but it hit the divider and bounced off.

Yet, the shark kept trying, but eventually gave up and stopped attacking. Even when the scientist removed the partition, the shark didn't attack anymore, having learned to believe a barrier existed between it and the bait fish!

My dear friends, like the shark in this story, many of us give up and stop trying after experiencing setbacks and #failures.

We often forget to reflect on our actions and realize that the barriers we see are often in our own minds.

So this Sunday, take a step back, identify the barriers holding you back, and remind yourself they are not real.

Start again, and this time, don't stop!

As Swami #Vivekananda said, "Don't stop, run until you #achieve."

So, Gear up and push forward towards your goals.

All the best!
