Welcome to Darren Daly on demand, your most trusted resource to help you become better every day.

Here's your success mentor, Darren Hardy.

There were two warring tribes that not so peacefully coexisted, one that lived in the lowlands and the other high in the mountains.

One day, the mountain people invaded the lowlanders, plundering and kidnapping a baby from the village. They vanished

with a child and took her back up into the mountains. The lowlanders outraged at the disappearance

of one of their own, were pushed into action. But the lowlanders did not know how to climb the mountain.

They didn't know any of the trails that the mountain people used

and they didn't know where to find the mountain people

or how to track them in the steep terrain.

Even so, they sent out their best party of fighting men

to climb the mountain and bring the baby home.

The men tried first one method of climbing and then another.

They tried one trail and then another.

After several days of effort, however, they had climbed only several hundred feet.

Feeling hopeless and helpless, the lowlander men decided that the cause was lost,

and they prepared to return to their village below.

As they were packing their gear for the descent, they saw the baby's mother walking toward them.

They realized that she was coming down the mountain that they hadn't figured out how to climb.

And then they saw that she had the baby strapped to her back. How could that be? One man

greeted her and said, we couldn't climb this mountain. How did you do it when we, the strongest and

most able men in the village, couldn't do it? She shrugged her shoulders and said intently,

it wasn't your baby.
