Once a man was walking along the beach. The sun was shining and it was a beautiful day. Off in the distance he could see a person going back and fourth between the surf's edge and the beach. Back and fourth this person went. As the man approached, he could see that there was hundreds of starfishes stranded on the sand as a result of the natural action in the tide.
The man was stuck by the apparent futility of the task, there were far too much starfish. Many of them were sure to perish. He arrived, and the person was picking and throwing the starfish. As he came up to the person he said, "You must be crazy. There are thousands of miles in the beach and starfishes, you can not make a difference between them." The person looked at the man and throw a starfish in the sea, and said, "It must make a difference on that one! Many times we went lazy and don't make any of the efforts. Shun laziness. Do not find reasons to not make any effort. Every effort counts. Keep on performing, your good efforts will make some good reap fruits.
