Be a Legend.

An eagle's egg was placed in the nest of a prairie chicken. The egg hatched and the little eagle grew up thinking  it was a prairie chicken.  The eagle did what the prairie chickens did. It scratched in the dirt for seeds. It clucked and cackled. It never flew more than a few feet because that is what  the prairie chickens did. One day he saw an eagle flying gracefully and majestically in the open sky. He asked the prairie chickens:
 "What is that beautiful bird?" The chickens replied,  "That is an eagle. He is an outstanding bird, but you cannot fly like him because you are just a prairie chicken." 

So the eagle never gave it a second thought,  believing that to be the truth. He lived the life of and  died a prairie chicken, depriving himself of his heritage  because of his lack of vision.
 
What a waste! He was born to win, but was conditioned to lose. Do not let people or situations or even yourself condition you to lose in life.
