I have never heard this story before. What a powerful illustration of how we should approach reaching our goals! The wind tried so hard and the harder it tried the more it caused the opposite result.
When we feel that we are forcing things in our lives, it usually means that we didn't put enough time and effort into preparation.
Thanks for sharing this great story with us!

Scott,
Thank you for your honesty. I really appreciate you. The way we are taught at school has lead us into the trap of forcing things to happen. We are always told that we have to work hard. We were never told to work smart. It is well-known in the personal development leader’s circles that 1 hour of a smart thought process produces more results than 3 months of constant hard work. And it is more pleasant, easy and effective!
Thank you for your thoughts.

David,
I am familiar with trying to force things to happen. I used to do it until I realized it doesn’t work and it is difficult and unpleasant on top. So I woke up! to the truth. The reason why things don’t flow freely when we force them is because it is against the Universal Laws of Nature. And imagine if it works when we do it forcefully, we’ll erroneously decide that this is the way to go and do it forcefully every time. There is a great reason when it doesn’t flow – to stop what we are doing and use our power. Profoundly simple and simple profound, yet never thought at any school.
Thank you for your insight,
Venus

Michael,
Thanks for your thoughts. It is true that responsibility comes with power and they form a great duet together. I think anyone who desires success is to be responsible – responsibility is an essential ingredient in really living, otherwise we merely exist waiting to be tossed and turned by someone else’s decisions. True success includes responsibility and power.
Thank you,
Venus

Very interesting story! You make some very good points. We all want power but with great power come great responsibility! At least that's what Peter Parker's uncle told him! Thanks for your post.
