Put a frog into a vessel fill with water and start heating the water. As
the temperature of the water begins to rise, the frog adjust its body
temperature accordingly. The frog keeps
adjusting its body temperature with the increasing temperature of the
water. Just when the water is about to reach boiling point, the frog
cannot adjust anymore. At this point the frog decides to jump out. The
frog tries to jump but it is unable to do so because it has lost all its
strength in adjusting with the rising water temperature. Very soon the
frog dies.
What killed the frog?
Think about it!
I know many
of us will say the boiling water. But the truth about what killed the
frog was its own inability to decide when to jump out.
We all need
to adjust with people & situations, but we need to be sure when we
need to adjust & when we need to move on. There are times when we
need to face the situation and take appropriate actions.
If we allow people to exploit us physically, emotionally, financially, spiritually or mentally they will continue to do so.
Let us decide when to jump!
Let's jump while we still have the strength.
