1. 0:00One morning, a small mouse named Milo
2. 0:01[music]
3. 0:02ran through the forest with excitement
4. 0:04in his eyes.
5. 0:06>> I will build the biggest food storage in
6. 0:08the forest before winter. [music]
7. 0:10>> He shouted. Every animal he met heard
8. 0:12the same thing.
9. 0:14>> I have a great plan.
10. 0:16I will collect more food than anyone.
11. 0:18This winter will be my best season ever.
12. 0:22>> The rabbit heard it, the squirrel heard
13. 0:24it, the birds heard it, even the lazy
14. 0:27[music] crow sitting on a tree heard it.
15. 0:29Everyone smiled and congratulated him.
16. 0:32Milo loved it. The more animals praised
17. 0:35him, the more he talked about his future
18. 0:37[music] plans.
19. 0:38Instead of collecting food, he spent
20. 0:40hours telling others what he was going
21. 0:42to do.
22. 0:43Days passed. Every morning he announced
23. 0:46new goals.
24. 0:48>> I found [music] a perfect place for my
25. 0:49storage.
26. 0:50I will fill it with nuts and seeds.
27. 0:54I will become the most prepared animal
28. 0:56in the forest.
29. 0:57>> The animals kept saying,
30. 0:59>> Wow, Milo. That's impressive. [music]
31. 1:03>> Each compliment made him feel
32. 1:04successful, even though he had not done
33. 1:06much work yet.
34. 1:08One afternoon, Milo met an old turtle
35. 1:10near a stream. [music]
36. 1:11The turtle listened quietly while Milo
37. 1:14explained all his future achievements.
38. 1:16When Milo finished, the turtle smiled.
39. 1:19>> Have you already built the storage?
40. 1:22>> No.
41. 1:23>> Have you collected enough food?
42. 1:25>> Not yet.
43. 1:27>> Then why are you celebrating?
44. 1:30>> Milo [music] laughed.
45. 1:31>> I'm not celebrating. I'm sharing my
46. 1:34plans.
47. 1:35>> The turtle slowly [music] shook his
48. 1:36head.
49. 1:38>> Be careful.
50. 1:39Sometimes talking about success feels so
51. 1:41good that people stop working for
52. 1:43[music] it.
53. 1:44>> Milo thought the turtle was being
54. 1:46negative. He thanked him [music] and ran
55. 1:48away.
56. 1:49The next day he told even more animals
57. 1:51about his plans. Soon something [music]
58. 1:54unexpected happened. The crow began
59. 1:56watching him. Whenever Milo discovered a
60. 1:58good food [music] source, he would tell
61. 2:00everyone.
62. 2:01The crow would secretly visit the place
63. 2:03first and take some of [music] the food.
64. 2:06Then a few other animals started doing
65. 2:07the same.
66. 2:09Milo kept sharing information without
67. 2:11realizing it. Weeks later, [music] he
68. 2:13looked at his storage. It was almost
69. 2:15empty.
70. 2:16Winter was getting [music] closer.
71. 2:18For the first time, he felt nervous.
72. 2:21>> How can this be?
73. 2:23>> He [music] asked himself.
74. 2:25>> I have been working for weeks.
75. 2:27>> But when he honestly looked at his
76. 2:29[music] days, he saw the truth.
77. 2:31A lot of his time was spent talking.
78. 2:34Talking about future work. Talking about
79. 2:37future success. [music]
80. 2:38Talking about future results. Not
81. 2:41actually doing the work.
82. 2:43That evening he sat alone beside the
83. 2:45stream.
84. 2:46The old turtle appeared again.
85. 2:48>> You look worried.
86. 2:50>> [music]
87. 2:50>> Said the turtle.
88. 2:51>> I don't understand. I had such a great
89. 2:54plan.
90. 2:55>> The turtle nodded. [music]
91. 2:57>> A plan is only a seed.
92. 2:59The work is what makes it [music] grow.
93. 3:02>> Milo lowered his head.
94. 3:04>> I thought sharing my plans would
95. 3:06motivate me.
96. 3:07>> Sometimes it does.
97. 3:09>> Replied the turtle. [music]
98. 3:11>> But often people enjoy the praise before
99. 3:13earning it.
100. 3:14Their minds start feeling rewarded too
101. 3:16early. [music]
102. 3:18>> The mouse stayed silent.
103. 3:20Deep down he knew the turtle was right.
104. 3:22>> [music]
105. 3:22>> The next morning, Milo made a decision.
106. 3:25He would stop announcing his goals. No
107. 3:28more [music] speeches. No more promises.
108. 3:31No more showing off future success.
109. 3:33He would let [music] his actions speak.
110. 3:36When other animals asked what he was
111. 3:37doing, he simply smiled.
112. 3:40>> Just working.
113. 3:41>> Nothing more.
114. 3:43Days turned into [music] weeks. Milo
115. 3:45woke up before sunrise every morning. He
116. 3:48searched for seeds. He carried nuts. He
117. 3:51organized his storage [music] carefully.
118. 3:53Whenever he found a good food source, he
119. 3:55kept it private.
120. 3:57He focused [music] on the task instead
121. 3:59of the attention.
122. 4:00Something strange happened. Without
123. 4:03constant talking, he had more energy.
124. 4:05Without trying [music] to impress
125. 4:06others, he stayed focused longer.
126. 4:09Without seeking approval, he worked
127. 4:11harder.
128. 4:12His storage [music] slowly began filling
129. 4:14up.
130. 4:15Meanwhile, the crow became curious.
131. 4:18He noticed Milo was no longer sharing
132. 4:20[music] information.
133. 4:21The crow followed him one day, but lost
134. 4:23him in the forest.
135. 4:25Another day, [music] he tried again.
136. 4:27Still nothing.
137. 4:28The crow became frustrated. For months,
138. 4:31he had depended on Milo's loose tongue.
139. 4:34Now there was nothing to steal.
140. 4:36Winter finally arrived. Cold winds moved
141. 4:39through the forest. Food became
142. 4:41difficult to find. [music]
143. 4:43Many animals struggled. Some had
144. 4:45prepared well, others had not.
145. 4:48One snowy morning, the rabbit visited
146. 4:50Milo's home.
147. 4:52His eyes became wide with surprise. The
148. 4:54storage [music] was full. Rows of seeds,
149. 4:57piles of nuts, enough food for the
150. 5:00entire winter.
151. 5:01>> How did you do this?
152. 5:03>> Asked the rabbit. [music]
153. 5:04Milo smiled.
154. 5:06>> I stopped talking and started working.
155. 5:09>> Soon the story spread across the forest.
156. 5:12Animals wanted to know Milo's secret.
157. 5:15This time he [music] did not brag.
158. 5:17He simply shared what he had learned.
159. 5:19One evening, many young animals gathered
160. 5:21around him.
161. 5:22A young squirrel asked,
162. 5:24>> How did you become so successful?
163. 5:27>> Milo thought [music] for a moment, then
164. 5:29he said,
165. 5:30>> Success became easier when I stopped
166. 5:33announcing every step.
167. 5:35>> The animals listened carefully. [music]
168. 5:37Milo continued,
169. 5:38>> When I told everyone my plans, I felt
170. 5:40important. [music] I enjoyed the
171. 5:42attention.
172. 5:43But attention is not progress.
173. 5:45>> [music]
174. 5:46>> The squirrel nodded. Another animal
175. 5:48asked,
176. 5:49>> So, we should never tell anyone our
177. 5:51goals?
178. 5:52>> Milo smiled.
179. 5:53>> Not exactly.
180. 5:55>> [music]
181. 5:55>> Sometimes sharing with the right people
182. 5:56can help, but telling everyone too early
183. 5:59can become a trap.
184. 6:01>> What kind of trap?
185. 6:02>> You start loving the applause more than
186. 6:04the effort.
187. 6:05>> The animals [music] became quiet. Milo
188. 6:07looked around.
189. 6:09>> I learned that dreams grow best in
190. 6:11silence. Like seeds under the soil. You
191. 6:14don't [music] dig them up every day to
192. 6:15show everyone. You protect them. You
193. 6:18water them. You work on them. Then one
194. 6:21day people see the results.
195. 6:23>> The old turtle who was listening nearby
196. 6:25[music]
197. 6:25smiled proudly.
198. 6:27Winter continued. As the weeks passed,
199. 6:30many animals remembered Milo's lesson.
200. 6:32Some stopped talking [music] about
201. 6:34becoming stronger and started training.
202. 6:36Some stopped talking about learning and
203. 6:38[music] started studying.
204. 6:40Some stopped talking about building and
205. 6:42started creating. Slowly the forest
206. 6:45changed. [music]
207. 6:46More action, less talking. More
208. 6:48discipline, less showing off. And life
209. 6:51improved for many [music] of them.
210. 6:53One day, near the end of winter, Milo
211. 6:56met the crow again.
212. 6:57The crow [music] looked disappointed.
213. 6:59>> You changed, said the crow.
214. 7:02>> Milo laughed. Yes, I did.
215. 7:05>> You used to tell everyone [music]
216. 7:06everything.
217. 7:07>> I know.
218. 7:09>> What happened?
219. 7:10>> Milo looked at [music] the snowy trees.
220. 7:12I realized something important.
221. 7:15>> What?
222. 7:16>> People should hear your success from
223. 7:17your results, not from your promises.
224. 7:20>> The crow had no [music] answer. For the
225. 7:22first time he understood. The strongest
226. 7:25workers were often the quietest. The
227. 7:27loudest people were not always the most
228. 7:29successful. [music]
229. 7:30And those who focused on action often
230. 7:33reached their goals faster than those
231. 7:35who kept announcing them.
232. 7:37As winter ended and spring returned,
233. 7:39Milo looked at the forest with
234. 7:41gratitude.
235. 7:42The mouse who [music] once loved talking
236. 7:44about success had become someone who
237. 7:46quietly worked for [music] it. And that
238. 7:48simple change transformed his life.
239. 7:52>> My perspective on this story is simple.
240. 7:55I learned that many people lose energy
241. 7:57by talking too much about what they will
242. 8:00do.
243. 8:01They announce their dreams, their goals,
244. 8:03and their future success before they
245. 8:05have earned any of it.
246. 8:07For me, the biggest lesson is that plans
247. 8:10are valuable, but actions are priceless.
248. 8:13Work in silence, stay consistent, and
249. 8:16let your results introduce you.
250. 8:18The less you seek approval, the more
251. 8:21focused you become on what truly
252. 8:22matters.
