Don’t let people define what you are!

People will always say something...

Friends, I would like to tell you the story of an elephant, when he used to walk unnoticed in the unknown paths of humans and countless people used to stand there to see him. He was so big, he was so unique that everyone stays their to see him.

But as a being human person is jealous of the hidden success of another person, the same thing might happen in animals too. Some ferocious dogs barked from behind that elephant. But no one came close to him, why? Was the elephant bigger than them? Or was the elephant old? No, they were afraid that the elephant was capable of something which they fear.

The elephant can crush them in a moment, but he lets them bark. If he starts barking like them, then what will be the difference between dogs and elephants? That’s it, you are the elephant of your life. You can’t blame the barking dogs. But you have it within your power to completely tune them out. By being an elephant that keeps walking while the dogs are barking.

Focusing on your inner elephant is a healthy exercise to concentrate on who you are and what you believe in, rather than letting others do the defining. What matters the most is what you know to be real about your goals. Everything else is noise.
