As a man was passing by some elephants, he suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their leg. No chains, no cages. It was very clear that these elephants could break away at any time, but for some reason, they didn't. He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and made no attempt to escape. "Well," the trainer said, "when they are very young and much smaller, we use the same size rope to tie them and at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away.
