Two friends,Jim and Stew,joined a big sales company(公司) together.Both of them worked really hard.Three years passed and the company's director promoted(提拔)Stew to sales executive(销售主管).Jim did not get any promotion(提拔).
Jim thought it was unfair,so he asked his boss why he didn't show thanks to the hard-working people like him in the company.The boss knew that Jim worked hard,and in order to show the difference between him and Stew,he said,"Go and find anyone selling apples in the market(市场).
When Jim returned,the boss asked, "How much per kilogram?" So Jim went back to the market and then returned to say the price—12 per kg.Then the boss asked Stew the same thing.Stew went to the market,and when he returned he said, "At the moment there is one person selling apples,$ 12 per kg,$ 100 for 10 kg.Now he has 340 apples in stock(有存货).On the table there are 48 apples,and each of them weighs about 0.2 kg.Now he has 340 apples in stock(有存货).On the table there are 48 apples,and each of them weighs about 0.2 kg.Apples were bought from the south two days ago,so they are fresh."
Hearing this,Jim realized the difference between him and Stew.He knew that he could learn a lot from his friend.
Successful people are better at thinking than common people.They think and see the future,while common people only see tomorrow.
From then on,Jim .
