4. A little boy went into a drug store, reached for a soda carton and pulled it over to the
telephone. He climbed onto the carton so that he could reach the buttons on the phone
and proceeded to punch in seven digits (phone numbers). The store-owner observed
and listened to the conversation.
.
5. Boy: ‘Lady, Can you give me the job of cutting your lawn?
Woman: (at the other end of the phone line): ‘I already have someone to cut my lawn.’
Boy: ‘Lady, I will cut your lawn for half the price of the person who cuts your lawn now.’
Boy: (with more perseverance) : ‘Lady, I’ll even sweep your curb and your sidewalk, so on
Sunday you will have the prettiest lawn in all of Palm beach , Florida.’
Woman: No, thank you.
Woman: I’m very satisfied with the person who is presently cutting my lawn
.
6. With a smile on his face, the little boy replaced the receiver. The store-owner, who was
listening to all this, walked over to the boy.
Store Owner: ‘Son… I like your attitude; I like that positive spirit and would like to offer
you a job.’
Boy: ‘No thanks.’
Store Owner: But you were really pleading for one.

7. Boy: No Sir, I was just checking my performance at the Job I already have.
I am the one who is working for that lady I was talking to!

8. “For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror
every morning and asked myself: If today were the
last day of my life, would I want to do what I am
about to do today:
And whenever the answer has been ‘No’ for too many
days in a row, I know I need to change something.”
