Be deaf to negative comments

Some frogs decided to hold a competition one fine day. The goal of this challenge was to climb to the summit of an extremely tall tower.

The competition began when a group of frogs gathered to watch their friends. None of the frogs in the crowd thought the contenders would be able to climb to the top of the tower. “Poor ones!” they all exclaimed. They’ll never make it!” All but one of them eventually gave up hope and dropped out of the race.

With considerable effort and difficulty, the last frog in the race made it to the top of the tower. Other frogs were intrigued and wanted to know how the frog managed to accomplish. “How did you do this?” one of the frogs inquired as he approached.

They knew right then and there that the frog that had climbed the tall tower was deaf!

Never listen to those who tell you that you can’t achieve your goals. People who have bad thoughts should not be listened to.
