Great People; Failure is their tamed horse.
When everybody leaves, they come- One afternoon of 346 BCE, astounded king Phillip, was looking at big wigs of his army failing one by one in front of too wild, unmanageable but amazing horse- 'Bucephalus'
Consensus was building in arena that the horse (Bucephalus) is too wild to ride and thus unfit for army. After last failed attempt, soldiers said we are helpless.
"You are not helpless, You are spineless," a voice raised from the crowd. The voice was of 15 year old Alexander. King Philips resisted with words" You think, you are better than people more than double your age." Unfazed Alexander again challenged and again laughter erupted in arena, thinking him fool. Amid laughter, Alexander reached close to horse and start moving around it, it didn't took him long to observe that horse is not afraid of people, but to its own shadow. He made horse move in the direction of sun, thus shadow was behind horse, away from his eyes and this made horse calmed down, Alexander mounted horse and started riding it across arena. Laugh of spectators turned in cheers.This proved him a born master strategist. Alexander courage was so big, that what Macedonia, whole world looked small before it.
"BIG AGE DOESN'T MEAN BIG WISDOM."
