A Moral Story on Discipline and Success: Nature’s Best Secrets
Nitin was restless.
The school football tournament was just weeks away.
One question kept troubling him—who would be his main striker?
Aslam had raw talent.
He was fast, sharp, and gifted with the ball.
But he lacked discipline.
He skipped practice and ignored teamwork.
No one else matched his skill, yet his attitude was a risk.
Nitin thought for days.
Then one morning, an idea struck.
He took Aslam aside, near the forest edge of the school ground.
“Look up,” he said.
A flock of birds flew in the sky, wings moving in perfect rhythm.
One led, the rest followed.
There was no clash, only discipline.
Aslam stared, silent.
Then Nitin pointed at the ground.
An army of ants moved with the same order.
Each had a role.
Not one broke the line.
Nitin whispered,
“Discipline makes talent powerful.
Add discipline to your gift, and you will lead this team.”
That day changed Aslam.
He came on time.
He worked with his teammates.
And in the tournament, he became the main striker.
The team lifted the trophy.
Moral of the Story: Discipline is the secret that turns talent into success.
