An obstacle along the way

A stone along the way ... An obstacle to solve ... A lesson to learn ...

Long ago, a king placed a large rock obstructing a path. Then, he hid and looked to see if anyone removed the tremendous rock.

Some of the wealthiest merchants of the king and courtiers came and simply turned him around.

Many blamed the king loudly for not keeping the roads clear, but none did anything to get the big stone out of the way.

Then a farmer came, and carried a load of vegetables. When approaching the rock, the farmer put his load on the floor and tried to move the rock to the side of the road. After pushing and getting very tired, he made it out.

While picking up his load of vegetables, he noticed a wallet on the floor, just where the rock had been. The wallet contained many gold coins and a note from the same king indicating that gold was for the person who removed the stone from the road.

the peasant lernt what others never understood. Each obstacle presents an opportunity to improve one's condition.

The advice of the story:

Look at each obstacle as something that must be resolved!
