When you believe...
Once there was a General who was leading his army into battle against an enemy ten times the size of his own.
Along the way to the battle field, the troops stopped by a small church to pray for victory.
The general held up a coin and told his troops, "I am going to implore God to help us crush our enemy. If this coin lands with the heads on top, we'll win. If it's tails, we'll lose. Our fate is in the hands of the God. Let's pray wholeheartedly."
After a short prayer, the General tossed the coin. It landed with the heads on top. The troops were overjoyed and went into the battle with high morale.
Just as predicted, the General and his smaller army won the battle.
The soldiers were exalted, "It's good to have God on our side! No one can change what he has determined."
"Really?" said the General, and showed them the coin which had heads on both sides.
The moral of this story is......
1. Check the coin before you call tails.
2. Numbers and size don't matter.
3. When you believe, somehow you will believe.
Wishing everyone a fabulous Wednesday and self belief!!!!

A military operation involves deception. Even though you are competent, appear to be incompetent. Though effective, appear to be ineffective.
but still they remember wounded knee.
