Know the TRUTH

One day a disciple found a glittering object on the road. He took the precious object, showed it to the master and asked him, “Is this a genuine diamond?”

The master was supposed be very knowledgeable about gems. He instructed the disciple, “Go to the library and read all about diamonds.” The disciple went, studied everything about diamonds and returned after having acquired sufficient knowledge about diamonds.

Produce QUALITY Goods

A company, dealing in dog food, was holding its annual sales convention. The sales personnel were brimming with ideas. The advertising director introduced a point-of-sale scheme that would “revolutionize the industry”. The sales director extolled the virtues of “the best sales force in the business.” Finally, it was time for the president to go to the podium and make his closing remarks.

“Over the past few days’’ he began, “We’ve heard from all our division heads their wonderful plans for the coming years. Now we draw to a close, I have only one question. If we have the best advertising, the best marketing strategy, the best sales force, how come we sell less dog food than anyone else in the business?”

How Do You Look At Failure?

Failure, they say, is the best teacher. We learn and have more confidence in what we know through trial and error, which onetime or another has resulted in failure. You don't have to accept your failure if what you really want to achieve is success.

For every successful achievement, there have been one or more failures. But those who we call successful are those who refuse to accept failure and believe success is the other side of failure.

The incandescent light was invented after 1000 failures. Assuming he had stopped after he tried 100 times without the desire result, what would have been the result of such effort?

The Power of Self-Confidence

Stumbling over stones, a man was trying to find his way through a dark cave with a light of hope from a lantern. Finally, he could trace a ray of sunlight entering the cave, which made him glitter with happiness.

But, as he drew closer, he was bewildered to see a gigantic rock standing before him like a mammoth. Courage was the only strength he possessed to devastate the barricade.

He pushed the rock with all his might, but it stood firmly denying to move. He tried again but it repudiated him from leaving the place. He felt as though being swallowed by a Blue Whale that was waiting to fulfill its enormous appetite.

The Special Dog!!

There was a hunter who came into the possession of a special bird dog. The dog was the only one of its kind, because it can walk on water.

One day he invited a friend for hunting with him so that he could show off his prized possession. After some time, they shot few ducks, which fell into the river. The man ordered his dog to run and fetch the birds. The dog ran on water to fetch the birds.

Work Smart than Working Hard

One fine day, a bus driver went to the bus garage, started his bus, and drove off along the route. No problems for the first few stops, a few people got on, a few got off, and things went generally well. At the next stop, however, a big hulk of a guy got on. Six feet eight, built like a wrestler, arms hanging down to the ground. He glared at the driver and said, "Big John doesn't pay!" and sat down at the back.

The driver was five feet three, thin, and basically meek. Naturally, he didn't argue with Big John, but he wasn't happy about it. The next day the same thing happened -Big John got on again, said "Big John doesn't pay!" and sat down. It happened next day, and the one after that, and so forth.

Person hindering YOUR growth is dead!

One day all the employees reached the office and they saw a big advice on the door on which it was written: “Yesterday the person who has been hindering your growth in this company passed away. We invite you to join the funeral”.

In the beginning, they all got sad for the death of one of their colleagues, but after a while they started getting curious to know who was that man who hindered the growth of his colleagues and the company itself.

The excitement in the gym was such that security agents were ordered to control the crowd within the room. The more people reached the coffin, the more the excitement heated up.
