Attitude plays an important role in our life journey. Good attitude is vital for our personal and professional growth at various stages of our life. We often forget to realize this and end up in trouble by diverting ourselves from the right path. This below story illustrates how your Attitude differentiates your action for the success.
A little boy goes 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.
Boy: Maam, can you give me the job of cutting your lawn?
Woman: I already have someone to cut my lawn
Boy: Maam, I will cut your lawn for half the price of the person who cuts your lawn now
Woman: Thank you, but I am very satisfied with the person who is presently cutting my lawn
However, the little boy was persistent.
Boy: Ma'am, I’ll even sweep your curb and your sidewalk, so on Sunday you will have the prettiest lawn in all of North-Palm beach, Florida
Woman: Thanks again, but I am sorry. I just do not find need for a change
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 and said,
“Son… I like your attitude; I like that positive spirit and would like to offer you a job.”
The little boy replied, “No thanks, I was just checking my performance with the job I already have. I am the one who is working for that lady, I was talking to!”
Your ATTITUDE determines your ALTITUDE.
