I drove my truck off in a ditch on a country road yesterday and luckily, a local farmer came to help with his big strong horse, named Buddy.
He hitched Buddy up to the truck and yelled, “Pull, Nellie, pull!” Buddy didn’t move. Then the farmer hollered, “Pull, Buster, pull!” Buddy again didn’t respond.
Once more the farmer commanded, “Pull, Coco, pull!” Buddy never moved a muscle at all. Then the farmer nonchalantly said, “Pull, Buddy, pull!” And the horse easily pulled my truck out of the ditch.
I was most appreciative and also very curious. I asked the farmer why he called his horse by the wrong name three times. The farmer said, “Oh, Buddy is blind and if he thought he was the only one pulling, he wouldn’t even try.”

That was my thought when I first saw it
There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.
