皮鞋與馬路的選擇
惟雯說故事
很久很久以前,人類都還赤著雙腳走路。
有一位國王到某個偏遠的鄉間旅行,因為路面崎嶇不平,有很多碎石頭,刺得他的腳又痛又麻。
回到王宮後,他下了一道命令,要將國內的所有道路都鋪上一層牛皮。
他認為這樣做,不只是為自己,還可造福他的人民,讓大家走路時不再受刺痛之苦。
但即使殺盡國內所有的牛,也籌措不到足夠的皮革,而所花費的金錢,動用的人力,更不知凡幾。
雖然根本做不到,甚至還相當愚蠢,但因為是國王的命令,大家也只能搖頭嘆息。
一位聰明的僕人大膽向國王提出建言:「國王啊!為什麼您要勞師動眾,犧牲那麼多頭牛,花費那麼多金錢呢?您何不只用兩小片牛皮包住您的腳呢?」
國王聽了很驚訝,但也當下領悟,於是立刻收回成命,改採這個「皮鞋」的建議。據說,這就是「皮鞋」的由來。
故事寓意:
想改變世界,很難;要改變自己,則較為容易。
與其改變全世界,不如先改變自己。
當自己改變某些觀念和作法,眼中的世界自然也就跟著改變了。
如果你希望看到世界改變,那麼第一個必須改變的就是自己。
心若改變,態度就會改變;
態度改變,習慣就改變;
習慣改變,人生就會改變。

Hi! I’m at work browsing your blog from my new iphone 3gs! Just wanted to say I love reading your blog and look forward to all your posts! Keep up the superb work!
I have realized that over the course of creating a relationship with real estate homeowners, you’ll be able to come to understand that, in every single real estate transaction, a payment is paid. Eventually, FSBO sellers really don’t “save” the commission rate. Rather, they fight to win the commission by means of doing a strong agent’s job. In accomplishing this, they expend their money and also time to carry out, as best they could, the obligations of an realtor. Those assignments include disclosing the home through marketing, representing the home to all buyers, making a sense of buyer emergency in order to trigger an offer, making arrangement for home inspections, managing qualification investigations with the bank, supervising maintenance, and assisting the closing of the deal.
This is a topic which is close to my heart… Best wishes! Where can I find the contact details for questions?
