NICE STORY GUYS... Must READ !!
Fwd this story to your friends and make a chain if you want to spread the name of http://www.managementparadise.com
An American businessman was at the pier of a small coastal Mexican
Village when a small boat with just one fisherman docked.
Inside the small boat were several large yellow fin tuna.
The American complimented the Mexican on the quality of his fish
And asked how long it took to catch them.
The Mexican replied, "Only a little while, Senor."
The American then asked, "Why didn't you stay out longer and catch
More fish?"
The Mexican said he had enough to support his family's immediate
needs.
The American then asked, "But what do you do with the rest of your
time?"
The Mexican fisherman said, "I sleep late, fish a little, play
With my children, take siesta with my wife, Maria, stroll into the village
each evening where I sip wine and play guitar with my amigos. I have a full
and busy life, Senor."
The American scoffed, "I am a Harvard MBA and could help you. you
Should spend more time fishing and with the proceeds, buy a bigger boat
With the proceeds from the bigger boat you could buy several boats;
Eventually you would have a fleet of fishing boats. Instead of selling your
catch to a middleman you would sell directly to the processor, eventually
opening your own cannery. You would control the product, processing and
distribution.
You would need to leave this small coastal fishing village and move to
Mexico City, then Los Angeles and eventually New York City, where you will
run your expanding enterprise."
The Mexican fisherman asked, "But Senor, how long will this all
take?"
To which the American replied, "15-20 years."
"But what then, Senor?"
The American laughed and said, "That's the best part. When the
Time is right, you would announce an IPO and sell your company stock to
the public and become very rich. You would make millions."
"Millions, Senor? Then what?"
The American said, "Then you would retire. Move to a small coastal
Fishing village where you would sleep late, fish a little, play with your
kids, take siesta with your wife, stroll to the village in the evenings
where you could sip wine and play your guitar with your amigos."
"You mean being a Harvard MBA, you have to go through all that to
finally get to where I already am, Senor?"
:lol: :roll: :wink:
