The father said to his son: If you do not complain of any disease or illness that prevents you from running the race, then why are you so afraid of failure and completely convinced that you will fail? Ahmed said: I feel this, my father, my heart tells me that I will fail in the race, and therefore I will not participate in it from the beginning. Better for me, I will not participate.
The father smiled affectionately and said: Does your heart have a tongue to speak? Ahmed cried and mourned, and his anger and sadness increased until he started to hit the ground with his feet, the father shouted: Wait, little boy, do not do that, do not hit the ground with your feet here, but jump away from here, Ahmed stopped crying and looked at Abiyya with his surprise, and he did not understand his purpose, then He asked him while looking at the floor of the room he was banging on with his feet: Why am I jumping away, Father?
The father said: Because there may be a pit here, and you fall in it, my son, without noticing. Ahmed said, and his astonishment increased: But we are in our house, my father, and there is no pit here. Therefore, it is better to jump away from here .. Ahmed put his hand on his father’s forehead, examining his temperature and amazement, overwhelming him, so the father burst out laughing, saying: My son, you are failing before you run the race, so you will refrain from participating in it because of false fear, as if you jump From above mock pits that exist only in his imagination, you are sure that there is no pit here, so you did not jump as I asked you, and if you were so convinced and convinced within you that you will win the race, then you will definitely win ..
