Chuan and Jing joined a wholesale company
together just after graduation. Both worked very hard. After several years, the
boss promoted Jing to sales executive but Chuan remained a sales rep. One day
Chuan could not take it anymore, tender resignation to the boss and complained
the boss did not value hard working staff, but only promoted those who
flattered him.
The
boss knew that Chuan worked very hard for the years, but in order to help Chuan
realise the difference between him and Jing, the boss asked Chuan to do the
following. Go and find out if anyone is selling water melon in the market?
Chuan
returned and said yes. The boss asked how much per kg?
Chuan
went back to the market to ask and returned to inform the boss the price is $12
per kg.
Boss
told Chuan, I will ask Jing the same question?
Jing
went, returned and said, boss, Only one person selling water melon.
Price
is $12 per kg, $100 for 10 kg, he has inventory of 340 melons.
On
the table 58 melons, every melon weighs about 15 kg, bought from the South two
days ago, they are fresh and red, good quality.
Chuan
was very impressed and realised the difference between himself and Jing.
He
decided not to resign but to learn from Jing.
My
dear friends, a more successful person is more observant, thinks more and
understands in depth. For the same matter, a more successful person sees
several years ahead, while we see only tomorrow.
Think!
how far have you seen ahead in your life?
How
thoughtful in depth are you?
