Optimism

Our head of sales came to me today with a great story on optimism. It goes something like this.

A Pennsylvania family owned shoe company wanted to expand their operations overseas. The owner told one son to go to Africa to start an office and he told the other son to go to India. The son in Africa called his dad and said, "I am coming home right away, no one here wears shoes. There is no market." The son in India called his dad and said, "Dad, send me as many shoes as you can, no one here wears any shoes."

Is your glass half empty, or half full?
