The “HOPE” Experiment :

During a brutal study at Harvard in the 1950s, Dr. Curt Richter placed rats in a pool of water to test how long they could tread water.

On average they'd give up and sink after 15 minutes.

But right before they gave up due to exhaustion, the researchers would pluck them out, dry them off, let them rest for a few minutes - and put them back in for a second round.

In this second try - how long do you think they lasted?

Remember - they had just swum until failure only a few short minutes ago...

How long do you think?

Another 15 minutes?

10 minutes?

5 minutes?

No!

60 hours!

That's not an error.

That's right! 60 hours of swimming.

The conclusion drawn was that since the rats BELIEVED that they would eventually be rescued, they could push their bodies way past what they previously thought impossible.

I will leave you with this thought:

If hope can cause exhausted rats to swim for that long, what could a belief in yourself and your abilities, do for you?

Don't you ever give up on your life and business...

Every Living Thing have a BELIEF SYSTEM.


The BELIEF SYSTEM of Every Living Thing can either be fully controlled by It or by External Forces.

When You allow Your BELIEF SYSTEM To be Fully Controlled by You; There is Nothing IMPOSSIBLE To ACHIEVE.

On The Contrary;

When You allow Your BELIEF SYSTEM To be Partially Controlled By You or Fully Controlled by External Forces; You Drown; You Sink.


STORY MORALISM:

"The rats could swim for 60 more hours because they purged away the initial BELIEF SYSTEM of HOPELESSNESS That was UNEXPECTEDLY EXTERNALLY FORCED Upon Them; And They Refilled Their BELIEF SYSTEM with The HOPE And TRUST That Life will Definitely Give Them Another CHANCE if They Stayed In There To Survive Much Longer."
