Nice story.

After a devastating car accident, a 10-year-old boy not only lost his parents, he also lost his left arm.
Seeing this broken boy in need of confidence and encouragement, a Japanese judo master began giving the boy lessons.

After three months of training the boy was doing well, but the master was only teaching him one move.

"Sensei," the boy finally asked, "Master, shouldn't I be learning more moves?"

With a sigh, the Master replied, "This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you'll ever need to know."

Not quite understanding, but faithfully believing in his teacher, the boy kept training.

Several months later, the sensei took the boy to his first tournament. Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult. But after some time, his opponent became impatient and charged; the boy deftly used his one move... and won the match. Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the finals.

This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. For a while, the boy appeared to be overmatched. Concerned that the boy might get seriously hurt, the referee called a time-out. He was about to stop the match when the sensei intervened.

"No," the Sensei insisted, "Let him continue."

Soon after the match resumed, his opponent made a critical mistake: he dropped his guard. Instantly, the boy used his move to defeat the bigger, stronger, and experienced opponent. With this victory, not only did the boy win the match, he won the tournament. He was the champion.

On the way home, the boy and Sensei reviewed every move in each and every match. Then the boy summoned the courage to ask what was really on his mind.

"Sensei, how did I win the tournament with only one move?"

"You won for two reasons," the sensei answered. "First, you've almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. And second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grip your left arm."

With the right mindset and sincere efforts, it’s possible for anyone to turn their weaknesses into strengths.
Sometimes when we are tested, it is not to show us our weaknesses but to make us discover our strengths.
