Strengths & Weaknesses !!!
A 10-year-old boy decided to study judo despite the fact that he had
lost his left arm in a devastating car accident.
The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo master. The boy was
doing well, so he couldn't understand why, after three months of
training the master had taught him only one move.
"Sensei,"(Teacher in Japanese) the boy finally said, "Shouldn't I be
learning more moves? "This is the only move you know, but this is the
only move you'll ever need to know," the sensei replied.
Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher, the boy kept
training. Several months later, the sensei took the boy to his first
tournament.
Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third
match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent
became impatient and charged; the boy deftly used his one move to win
the match. Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the finals.
This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. For
a while, the boy appeared to be overmatched. Concerned that the boy
might get hurt, the referee called a time-out.
He was about to stop the match when the sensei intervened.
"No," the sensei insisted, "Let him continue." Soon after the match
resumed, his opponent made a critical mistake: he dropped his guard.
Instantly,
the boy used his move to pin him. The boy had won the match and the
tournament.
He was the champion. On the way home, the boy and sensei reviewed every
move in each and every match.
Then the boy summoned the courage to ask what was really on his mind.
"Sensei, how did I win the tournament with only one move?"
"You won for two reasons," the sensei answered. "First, you've almost
mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. And second,
the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your
left arm."
The boy's biggest weakness had become his biggest strength.
Sometimes we feel that we have certain weaknesses and we blame God, the
circumstances or ourselves for it but we never know that our weaknesses
can become our strengths one day.
Each of us is special and important, so never think you have any
weakness, never think of pride or pain, just live your life to its
fullest and extract the best out of it!"
