STRENGTH VS WEAKNESS

A 10 year old boy decided to join judo classes despite the
fact that he had lost his left hand in a recent car accident.
The boy started his lessons with an old Japanese judo
master. The boy was learning judo very well but he couldn't
understand why even after three months of classes the
master was teaching him only one move.
The boy finally asked the teacher, "Teacher, shouldn't I be
learning more moves?"
"This is the only move you'll ever need to know", the
teacher replied.
The boy was confused with the teacher’s statement but belief in his teacher made him
continue his classes. Several months later, the teacher took the boy to his first
tournament.
Surprisingly the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be
little difficult, but after some time, his opponent became impatient and the boy
skillfully used his only move to win the match and reach finals.
This time his opponent was bigger, stronger and more
experienced. The match started and looked one sided.
Concerned that the boy might get hurt the referee called a
time out. Soon the referee was about to stop the match when
the teacher intervened and said, "I insist the match to
continue".
The match resumed, the boy used his move in a lot of pain to
win the match and the tournament. The boy became the
champion. On the way home, the boy and teacher reviewed
every move in each and every match.
The boy asked the teacher, "How did I win the tournament with only one move?"
"You won for two reasons", the teacher answered. "Firstly, you've almost mastered
one of the most difficult moves in judo and secondly, the only way your opponent
could have defended you is to grab your left hand". The teacher continued, "Though
you lost your left hand in an accident (biggest weakness), the same had become
your biggest strength".
Sometimes we feel that we have certain weaknesses and we try to
blame people, circumstances or ourselves. We never understand that
our weaknesses can become our major strengths if utilized
appropriately.
