Inspirational story: the secret of success

Inspirational story: the secret of success <br /> That year, due to the brutal market competition, a well-known Kelly company in the United States faced the most severe survival test in history, sales fell sharply, and a large number of senior employees left the company one after another. Many of the remaining employees also felt that the prospects were in jeopardy and they began to consider their own retreat. For a time, the company was surrounded by a pessimistic atmosphere, and the company was on the verge of collapse.
In the face of difficulties, the company's president, Iverson, convinced the staff to listen to a very vivid speech. What is unexpected is that at this critical moment when there is an urgent need to inspire everyone's fighting spirit, the invited speakers are not the winners of the business world. And it turned out to be only ten years old little newsboy John! The way of speaking was also very special. President Iverson and Newsboy John had a sideless dialogue on the stage, but the purpose of the dialogue was intriguing.
Iverson opened the door and said: John, how long have you sent the newspaper?
John proudly said: Three years, from the time I was seven years old.
Iverson asks: How much can you earn on a newspaper?
John smiled and said: Now it is ten cents per newspaper, not including occasional tips.
Iverson asked: Seeing that you are happy every day, the road to making money is going smoothly.
John still smiled and said: I am happy every day, this is true, but the road to making money is not smooth. When I first started sending the newspaper, I still couldn’t earn two cents for a newspaper, and it was very hard, because there were too many people who sent newspapers in that neighborhood. Many children were older than me, and there were some adults who did it. Early, but also have experience than me.
Iverson asked with great interest: How did you beat your competitors later?
John is not proud to say: I did not beat the competitors, they defeated themselves. Seeing that it is difficult to make money by sending newspapers, they are pessimistic that they can’t make money, and there is no prospect of how to work hard. Everyone has changed to do something else, and I have persisted with hope, and I have done this job better and better, and I am getting more and more money.
Iverson said: John, have you ever thought about changing a job that makes money?
John said firmly: No, because my grandfather, who is a lawyer, told me that the biggest secret to success is to stay the course. Even in those days when I only earned three dollars a week, I didn’t think about changing jobs. I have always believed that I can earn more money I hope. Sure enough, now I have fulfilled my wish. In addition to sending my own newspapers, I have hired eight helpers to expand the range of delivery and customers. At present, I am preparing to set up a delivery company, ready to try to be the boss's taste.
Iverson appreciatively asked: Among those who sent you newspapers with you, are there more money than you now?
John replied proudly and decisively: No, many of them regretted that they did not persist as I did. Four of them have now become my right-handers.

At this time, President Iverson stood up excitedly and said: Thank you, John, you gave us a very wonderful speech today.
He said, he handed him a check for a thousand dollars.
John was surprised: You paid too much for me, I just talked about my experience.
President Iverson applauded John's head with admiration and said with affection: Child, I believe that the value of your speech today is more than 10,000 times the amount I paid. ”
No one would have thought that the ten-year-old newsboy had a very simple speech. It was like a fire that ignited many once-depressed souls, which made Kelly become a world-famous multinational group. The newsboy John himself later became the United States. "The newspaper tycoon."
The success of this little newspaper boy is by no means accidental. He also accumulated day by day. Therefore, the persistence and accumulation that I mentioned before is equal to hope, and it is the hope of success. The last thing I want to say is that the secret of success is persistence.
