Timeless Story of Wealth Management the "Butterfly Way"
What is it?” asked the child.
“It’s a cocoon,” the teacher said. “Inside is a butterfly. Soon the cocoon will split and the butterfly will come out.”
“May I have it?” the child asked.
“Yes, but you must promise that when the cocoon splits and the butterfly starts to come out and is beating its’ wings to get out of the cocoon, you won’t help it. Don’t help the butterfly by breaking the cocoon apart. Let him do it by himself.”
The child promised and took the cocoon home to watch it.
Finally it began to vibrate, move and quiver.
At last it split. Inside was a beautiful, damp butterfly frantically beating its wings against the cocoon, trying to get out.
The butterfly didn’t seem to be able to get free.
The child desperately wanted to help. After watching a while, the child gave in to impulse and helped pushed the cocoon apart. The butterfly sprang out. As soon as it got up into the air, it fell to the ground and died.
The child picked up the dead butterfly, in tears went back and showed the teacher.
“You helped open the cocoon, didn’t you?” Through tears, the child said, “Yes, I did.”
“When the butterfly comes out of the cocoon, the only way it can strengthen his wings is by beating them against the cocoon so its’ muscles will grow. When you helped it, you prevented it from getting strong enough to fly. That’s why the butterfly fell and died
