[HM:251845] Story: The baloon man


 
extract from 'you can win' by Shiv Khera

There was a man who made a living selling balloons at a fair. He had
all colors of balloons, including red, yellow, blue, and green. Whenever business
was slow, he would release a helium-filled balloon into the air and when the children saw
it go up, they all wanted to buy one. They would come up to him, buy a balloon, and his
sales would go up again. He continued this process all day. One day, he felt someone
tugging at his jacket. He turned around and saw a little boy who asked, "If you release a
black balloon, would that also fly?" Moved by the boy's concern, the man replied with
empathy, "Son, it is not the color of the balloon, it is what is inside that makes it go up."
The same thing applies to our lives. It is what is inside that counts.
The thing inside of us that makes us go up is our attitude.
Have you ever wondered why some individuals, organizations, or
countries are more successful than others?
It is not a secret. These people simply think and act more effectively. They have learned
how to do so by investing in the most valuable asset--people. I
believe that the success of an individual, organization or country, depends on the quality of
their people
