Remembered a story that made me laugh.
There was a time when I always got home and met my siblings using my laptop to either play game or watch movie. I would complain but same occurrence so I decided to password the laptop. I got home that day and they were upset I did it. They pleaded that I should remove the password so they could have access but I refused. Same thing happen the second day, I felt bad and removed the password before I slept that night. When I got home the third my laptop wasn’t tempered with, was surprised. Same thing happened throughout that week. During the weekend we were just chilling when they said sarcastically that I refused to remove the password from my laptop. I laughed so hard cause I how terrible the mind could enslave someone.
It made me remember a story I read about a scientist who tried an experiment on and insect. He placed the insect in a bottle and covered the top of it. Every time the insect gets to the top of the bottle he meets the cover which is a barrier and it falls back to the bottom of the bottle. This insect tries continually several times. After a while, the scientist came and removed the cover of the bottle. The insect crept up to the top of the bottle again and when he got there he fell back to the bottom again. It was accustom to the barrier at the top of the bottle.
This is how many people have being enslaved mentally. They have all the resources to be great around them but they are so blind with the challenges they are facing that they aren’t seeing through it. Learn to see opportunity and constructively make solutions out of them, then you will never be limited
