The Two Shoe Salesman story is a well-known parable that illustrates the power of perspective and attitude.
The story goes that two shoe salesmen were sent by a shoe company to a foreign country to assess the market for their product.
The first salesman arrived and immediately sent a message back to the company saying, “There is no potential here – nobody wears shoes.”
The second salesman arrived and sent a message back saying, “This is a fantastic opportunity – nobody wears shoes!”
The story demonstrates how two people can look at the same situation and interpret it completely differently based on their mindset and attitude.
The second salesman had a positive outlook and saw the potential in the situation, while the first salesman had a negative outlook and saw only the obstacles.
This story is often used to illustrate the power of a growth mindset and the importance of maintaining a positive attitude in order to succeed in any situation.
Kérdezd meg magadtól, mi tesz boldoggá, és akkor csináld. A világnak boldog emberekre van szüksége.

Üdvözöllek! Jöttem további szép napot kívánni számodra. A viharos, esős éjszaka után változóan felhős, kellemesen meleg az idő. Megérett a cseresznye, folyamatosan szedjük, hamar túlérik. Füvet is újra vágni kell másfél hét után, igyekezett megnőni, pedig nem volt kötelező sietni. Vigyázz magadra. Ölelésem, Éva
