2 frogs, 1 maze and 1 jar of milk If you are like me and often do not dare to do things, if you are afraid of making mistakes and therefore do not even try, here are two images which have helped me seeing things in a different way: The maze-game: You certainly know these little games, that you can find in children’s books: a maze with, for example, a rabbit at the entrance and a carrot at the exit. You have, with a pencil, to draw the right way to the carrot. Well, why not seeing the mistakes that you made, all the so-called failures as wrong ways that you had to try in order to finally find the good one? Certainly, some are lucky enough, or have a sort of magical feeling and find in one shot the issue, but for all the others, the best and simplest way to find the right way is to try several ways and by knowing them, finally find the good one. By seeing things like this, all your efforts were no more failures, they were real efforts, real work and they were useful, they helped you to find your right way. The story of two frogs in a jar: Two frogs had fallen in a jar of milk. They wanted to escape, but all their efforts were vain, they tried, tried but every time fell in the milk. One of them finally lost hope and drowned. The other carried on all night, jumping, jumping, swimming and swimming and jumping! On the next day, the frog was sitting on the top of a jar of… butter…and finally escaped from it!
