The Taxi Driver Taught Me an MBA Lesson

Got this on a mailing list… A really nice one.

I needed to go from Xujiahui to the airport, so I hurriedly concluded a meeting
and I was looking for a taxi in front of the Meiluo building. A taxi driver saw
me and very professionally came in a straight line and stopped right in front of
me. Thus followed the story that astonished me greatly as if I had attended a
lively MBA course. In order to faithfully preserve the intent of the taxi
driver, I have tried to reproduce his original words according to my memory.

Quit

Not my creation… taken from a fwd…

One day I decided to quit…I quit my job, my relationship, my
Spirituality… I wanted to quit my life.

I went to the woods to have one last talk with God. “God”, I said.. “Can you
give me one good reason not to quit?” His answer surprised me…
“Look around”, He said. “Do you see the fern and the bamboo?”

“Yes”, I replied.
