Often challenge brings u stress and worn out due to lack of capabilities, creativity to overcome it. How often do u able to twist them and gain positivities out of it. Ever meet an annoying boss who love deadlines? Ever meet someone who has endless energy, workaholic like a German engine or people who keep on smiling while handling stress.
Perhaps there is something we can learn from the the story of these Fish and shark.
The Japanese have always loved fresh fish
But the water close to Japan has not held many fish for decades.
So to feed the Japanese population, fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever.
The further the fishermen went, the longer it took to bring the fish
If the return trip took more time, the fish were not fresh.
To solve this problem, fish companies installed freezers on their boats.
They would catch the fish and freeze them at sea.
Freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer.
However, the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen fish and they did not like the taste of frozen fish
The frozen fish brought a lower price.
So, fishing companies installed fish tanks.
They would catch the fish and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin.
After a little thrashing around, they were tired, dull, and lost their fresh-fish taste.
The fishing industry faced an impending crisis!
But today, they get fresh-tasting fish to Japan.
How did they manage...?
To keep the fish tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing companies still put the fish in the tanks but with a small shark
The fish are challenged and hence are constantly on the move.
The challenge they face keeps them alive and fresh!
Have you realized that some of us are also living in a pond but most of the time tired and dull....?
Basically in our lives, sharks are new challenges to keep us active.
If you are steadily conquering challenges, you are happy.
Your challenges keep you energized.
Don’t create Success and revel in it in a state of inertia.
You have the resources, skills and abilities to make a difference.
Put a shark in your tank this year and see how far you can really go....
This fish story if you have not come across..

Happy New Year, Make a great journey
JOURNEY - How our life is - a note from Danish magazine, added by Aileen Noura
Life is like a journey on a train...
with its stations...
with changes of routes...
and with accidents !
We board this train when we are born and our parents are the ones who get our ticket.
We believe they will always travel on this train with us.
However, at some station our parents will get off the train, leaving us alone on this journey.
As time goes by, other passengers will board the train, many of whom will be significant - our siblings, friends, children, and even the love of our life.
Many will get off during the journey and leave a permanent vacuum in our lives.
Many will go so unnoticed that we won't even know when they vacated their seats and got off the train !
This train ride will be full of joy, sorrow, fantasy, expectations, hellos, good-byes, and farewells.
A good journey is helping, loving, having a good relationship with all co passengers...
and making sure that we give our best to make their journey comfortable...,
The mystery of this fabulous journey is :
We do not know at which station we ourselves are going to get off.
......
So, live in the best way - adjust, forget, forgive and offer the best of what we have.
It is important to do this because when the time comes for us to leave our seat... we should leave behind beautiful memories for those who will continue to travel on the train of life."
Thank you for being one of the important passengers on my train... don't know when my station will come... don't want to miss saying: "Thank you"
Thank you all for being part of this journey.
Hope to see a positive and inspiring 2015 ahead.
To the one that mean so much..our journey just about to begin, I'm enjoying it and love every moment.
