    Ever heard the story of the giant ship engine that failed? The ship's owners tried one expert after another, but none of them could figure but how to fix the engine. Then they brought in an old man who had been fixing ships since he was a youngster. He carried a large bag of tools with him, and when he arrived, he immediately went to work. He inspected the engine very
    carefully, top to bottom.

    Two of the ship's owners were there, watching this man, hoping he would know what to do. After looking things over, the old man reached into his bag and pulled out a small hammer. He gently tapped something. Instantly, the engine lurched into life. He carefully put his hammer away. The engine was fixed! A week later, the owners received a bill from the old man for ten thousand
    dollars.

    "What?!" the owners exclaimed. "He hardly did anything!"

    So they wrote the old man a note saying, "Please send us an itemized bill."

    The man sent a bill that read:

    Tapping with a hammer ........................ $ 2.00
    Knowing where to tap ............................ $ 9998.00

    Effort is important, but knowing where to make an effort in your life makes all the difference.
    Never argue with a fool or he will drag you down to his level and beat you at it through sheer experience!

    A son and his father were walking on the mountains.
    Suddenly, his son falls, hurts himself and screams:"AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
    To his surprise, he hears the voice repeating, somewhere in the
    mountain:
    "AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

    Curious, he yells: "Who are you?"

    He receives the answer: "Who are you?"

    Angered at the response, he screams: "Coward!"

    He receives the answer: "Coward!"

    He looks to his father and asks: "What's going on?"

    The father smiles and says: "My son, pay attention."
    And then he screams to the mountain: "I admire you!"
    The voice answers: "I admire you!"
    Again the man screams: "You are a champion!"
    The voice answers: "You are a champion!"
    The boy is surprised, but does not understand.

    Then the father explains: "People call this ECHO, but really this is
    LIFE.

    It gives you back everything you say or do.

    Our life is simply a reflection of our actions.

    If you want more love in the world, create more love in your heart.

    If you want more competence in your team, improve your competence.

    This relationship applies to everything, in all aspects of life; Life
    will give you back everything you have given to it.

    YOUR LIFE IS NOT A COINCIDENCE. IT'S A REFLECTION OF YOU!
    Never argue with a fool or he will drag you down to his level and beat you at it through sheer experience!

    Perspectives

    One day a rich man took his young son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose to show him how poor people can be. They spent a day and a night in the farm of a very poor family. When they got back from their trip the father asked his son, "How was the trip?" Very good, Dad!" "Did you see how poor people can be?" the father asked. "Yeah!" "And what did you learn?"

    The son answered, "I saw that we have a dog at home, and they have four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of the garden, they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lamps in the garden, they have the stars. Our patio reaches to the front yard, they have a whole horizon. When the little boy was finishing, his father was speechless.

    His son added, "Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor we are!" Isn't it true that it all depends on the way you look at things? If you have love, friends, family, health, good humor and a positive attitude toward life, you've got everything!

    You can't buy any of these things. You can have all the material possessions you can imagine, provisions for the future, etc., but if you are poor of spirit, you have nothing!
