It might sound funny to you but they are definitely
some few positives to pick out from this epic story
you are about to read.
And the story goes thus: A marketer
named John was once asked by his firm to travel
to a particular country in order to publicise and
advertise their designer’s shoes there. But
unfortunately for John on his arrival, he saw lots of
children, fathers and mothers walking about with
their bare feet. And so this precarious sight
discouraged John and he called his firm and asked
to be extracted from that country that the citizens
there did not appreciate shoes.
A week later a different firm also sent a
marketer named Charles to market their shoes in
the same country. Upon Charles arrival he also
found out that nobody there used a shoe and so
he called his firm and told them to send in more
thousands of shoes that the people there have not
been introduced to foot wears.
He started convincing them of the benefits
of using shoes and he sold tremendously that at a
point his firm could not keep up with the amount
of shoes needed, so the firm resolved to producing
the epic traditional rubber sandal popularly
referred to as “BATA” in order to meet up with the
rising demand of foot wears.
In conclusion, the difference between the
two marketers John and Charles is that what John
saw as a barrier, Charles saw as a stepping stone
to a much higher ground and this made him
generate immense wealth for his firm and himself
respectively.
So in your studies and in life, the way you
look at a situation determines if you will be able to
solve it or if you will fall by the way. Always keep
a positive mindset, be optimistic and see the best
even in a pathetic situation the way Charles did
and surely the sky will be your limit.
