As a man was passing
the elephants, he suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge
creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg.
No chains, no cages. It was obvious that the elephants could, at
anytime, break away from their bonds but for some reason, they did not.
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and
made no attempt to get away. “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. They believe the rope can
still hold them, so they never try to break free.”
The man was amazed. These animals could at any time break free from
their bonds but because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck
right where they were. Like the elephants, how many of us go through
life hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because
we failed at it once before? Failure is part of learning; we should
never give up the struggle in life.

Like this elephant story who is "conditioned to believe" also applies to us "human" too. Here is the story:https://www.thehansindia.com/posts/index/Young-Hans/2016-04-11/The-Elephant-Rope/220464?infinitescroll=1
