In India, where elephants are used for work animals, baby elephants are kept tied to a rope, which is attached to a stake in the ground. Due to being small and relatively weak, they can't pull the rope out, no matter how hard they try. Eventually they just stop trying to break free and take it for granted that they can't escape.
Later in life, when the elephants are full grown and much stronger, they could easily break free of the rope, but they are held in place by the same sized rope and stake, because in their mind they are still small and weak and don't even try to break free.
Sometimes, your limitations are only in your mind....
