Once upon a time, there was a man who visited foreign lands. When he returned from each trip, all he would talk about was the wonderful adventures he had and the great deeds he had done.

One of the acclaimed adventures he boasted about was a jump he made in a city called Rhodes.

“The jump was so great,” the man said. “No other man can make such a leap. Many persons in Rhodes saw me and can prove I am telling the truth.”

One of the people listening said “No need for witnesses,” just demonstrate it. He added, “Suppose that we were in Rhodes now, please show us how far you can jump.”

What is the Morale of the story?

It’s the deeds that count, not the boasting words.

Many boast to be successful traders but have no evidence, they cannot show or back up their claims.

Be careful who you follow and what you believe
