Story Sharing

Three people were sentenced to three years in prison. The warden gave each of them one request. The American loved cigars and asked for three boxes of cigars. The Frenchman, being the most romantic, asked for a beautiful woman to keep him company. The Jew, however, said he wanted a telephone to communicate with the outside world. Three years later, the first to emerge was the American, with cigars stuffed in his mouth and nostrils, shouting, "Fire, give me fire!" He had forgotten to ask for fire. Next came the Frenchman. He emerged holding a small child, with the beautiful woman holding another child's hand, and a third child on the way. Finally, the Jew came out. He tightly grasped the warden's hand and said, "For the past three years, I've been in contact with the outside world every day. My business not only didn't stop, but it grew by 200%. As a token of my gratitude, I'm giving you a Rolls-Royce!" This story tells us that the choices we make determine the life we live. Our lives today are determined by the choices we made three years ago, and our choices today will determine our lives three years from now. We must choose to access the latest information and understand the latest trends to better create our future.
