Ducks Quack, Eagles Soar.....

Ducks Quack, Eagles Soar.......

No one can make you serve customers well.
That's because great service is a choice.
Harvey Mackay, tells a wonderful story about a cab driver that proved this point.

He was waiting in line for a ride at the airport. When a cab pulled up, the first thing Harvey noticed was that the taxi was polished to a bright shine. Smartly dressed in a white shirt, black tie, and freshly pressed black slacks, the cab driver jumped out and rounded the car to open the back passenger door for Harvey .

He handed my friend a laminated card and said: 'I'm Wally, your driver. While I'm loading your bags in the trunk I'd like you to read my mission statement.'

Taken aback, Harvey read the card.

It said: Wally's Mission Statement:
To get my customers to their destination in the quickest, safest and cheapest way possible in a friendly environment.

This blew Harvey away. Especially when he noticed that the inside of the cab matched the outside. Spotlessly clean!

As he slid behind the wheel, Wally said, 'Would you like a cup of coffee? I have a thermos of regular and one of decaf.'

My friend said jokingly, 'No, I'd prefer a soft drink.'

Wally smiled and said, 'No problem. I have a cooler up front with regular and Diet Coke, water and orange juice.'

Almost stuttering, Harvey said, 'I'll take a Diet Coke.'

Handing him his drink, Wally said, 'If you'd like something to read, I have The Wall Street Journal, Time, Sports Illustrated and USA Today.'

As they were pulling away, Wally handed my friend another laminated card, 'These are the stations I get and the music they play, if you'd like to listen to the radio.'

And as if that weren't enough, Wally told Harvey that he had the air conditioning on and asked if the temperature was comfortable for him.

Then he advised Harvey of the best route to his destination for that time of day. He also let him know that he'd be happy to chat and tell him about some of the sights or, if Harvey preferred, to leave him with his own thoughts.

'Tell me, Wally,' my amazed friend asked the driver, 'have you always served customers like this?'

Wally smiled into the rear view mirror. 'No, not always. In fact, it's only been in the last two years. My first five years driving, I  spent most of my time complaining like all the rest of the cabbies do. Then I heard the personal growth guru, Wayne Dyer, on the radio one day.

He had just written a book called You'll See It When You Believe It .
Dyer said that if you get up in the morning expecting to have a bad day, you'll rarely disappoint yourself. He said, 'Stop complaining! Differentiate yourself from your competition. Don't be a duck. Be an eagle. Ducks quack and complain. Eagles soar above the crowd.''

'That hit me right between the eyes,' said Wally.

'Dyer was really talking about me. I was always quacking and complaining, so I decided to change my attitude and become an eagle. I looked around at the other cabs and their drivers. The cabs were dirty, the drivers were
unfriendly, and the customers were unhappy. So I decided to make some changes. I put in a few at a time. When my customers responded well, I did more.'

'I take it that has paid off for you,' Harvey said.

'It sure has,' Wally replied. 'My first year as an eagle, I doubled my income from the previous year. This year I'll probably quadruple it.

You were lucky to get me today. I don't sit at cabstands anymore. My customers call me for appointments on my cell phone or leave a message on my answering machine. If I can't pick them up myself, I get a reliable cabbie friend to do it and I take a piece of the action.'

Wally was phenomenal. He was running a limo service out of a Yellow Cab. I've probably told that story to more than fifty cab drivers over the years, and only two took the idea and ran with it. Whenever I go to their cities, I give them a call. The rest of the drivers quacked like ducks and told me all the reasons they couldn't do any of what I was suggesting.

Wally the Cab Driver made a different choice. He decided to stop quacking like ducks and start soaring like eagles.

How about us?

Ducks Quack, Eagles Soar...
We complain too much thinking that the world owes us and forgetting the ball is in our court.

keeping your vagina healthy and sweet

As a woman, keeping your vagina healthy
and sweet is important your sexual organs
are very valuable and must be well cared for.
The human race has always found
expression of affection in sex and romantic
interaction. Undoubtedly, sex and love are
very important to our general wellbeing, as a
man or as a woman. This by implication
means our sex organs are very valuable and
must be well cared for. So, as a woman,
keeping your vagina healthy and sweet is
important.
Here are 7 simple tips to help you do just
that:
1. Wash your vagina as often as possible.
Vaginal odour is one of the worst problems a
woman can face. To prevent this, wash at
least twice a day with a gentle, unscented
soap. Make sure you wash the pubic hair
around the vagina. They usually retain sweat
and dirt which in turn can create foul odour.
2. Give your vagina a regular haircut or
shave. Some people crave a hairy vagina,
but keeping too much vaginal hair is not so
wise. Truth is, the shorter the vaginal hair,
the lower the chances of odour and
infections. Women who have the time to
constantly clean up may not have a problem
with this. This is not always so if your
hygiene standards are high. But shorter is
cleaner and better.
3. Let our vagina breathe with the right
lingerie. Use the right lingerie which will allow
air around your vagina because, leaving the
area damp leaves you open to a bacterial
invasion. Cotton underwear is preferably to
nylon and other airless fabric.
4. Get medical help once you notice an
infection. It is not wise to watch a vaginal
infection develop. Once you notice an itch,
strange colouration of vaginal (menstrual)
emissions, strange feelings or noticeable
signs of infections — say foul odour, rashes
or boils, head to the hospital. The danger of
leaving infections untreated goes beyond
odours. Your fertility as woman is also at
risk.
5. Change your underwear regularly. A
woman should never wear an underwear item
for more than a day. Vaginal secretions
make it totally unhealthy, damp and a ready
ground for bacteria to multiply. This is even
more important during menstruation.
6. No perfumes around the vagina. If you
have odour around the vagina, spraying
perfume will not help you. Perfume will make
matters worse by causing a PH imbalance
which is not good. So the best option is to
up your hygiene.
7. Make your vagina taste sweet with good
food. It has been proven that what you eat
affects the taste of your vaginal juices. So
eat the right kind of fruits, especially those
high in natural sugar— oranges, apples,
mangoes etc. They have a positive effect on
vaginal taste, same as with yoghurt and
honey. On the other hand, avoid fruits and
vegetables that give bad breath — like
onions, garlic. They have an equally negative
effect on vaginal taste, just like alcohol,
coffee and spicy food.
A BONUS TIP is to use baby wipes instead
of the usual tissue paper after a visit to the
toilet.

"koteb)tor guys", urs be serious case. pull
back the foreskin and wash underneath with
warm water.

How men listen

According to a new survey,the average man is an excellent listener who can concentrate for
ages while being addressed on a wide range of topics.Unfortunately this is only the case
when the person talking to him is a male
friend and the conversation is about sport,cars and what used to be referred to as “birds”.
When the person doing the talking is a woman
who he is in a relationship with, however, things all go a bit Cheech and Chong. Listening to the lady in his life is something a man can only manage for six minutes before his mind breaks free from its mooring and drifts dreamily away.
My first thought on reading this was that six
minutes seems like an amazingly long time.Six
whole minutes of full concentration?Frankly,
if something takes longer than six minutes to say,then maybe somebody isn’t really getting to the point quickly enough.
But apparently this was not the point being
made.Instead,the evidence is to be taken as proof that men are bad listeners and that they really should be doing better.
Over half of women in the Ladbrokes-
commissioned survey are so fed up with men
not listening to them that they throw in little
tests to make sure that he is not faking it.They
want to make sure he isn’t doing the classic
man-move of giving the occasional non-
committal nod in the hope that eventually
she’ll get the hint and call a friend instead.

You think you have problem!

Two men met at a bus stop and struck up a conversation. One of them kept complaining of family problems. Finally, the other man said: “You
think you have family problems? Listen to my
situation. A few years ago, I met a young widow with a grown-up daughter and we got married.
“Later my father married my step daughter. That made my stepdaughter my stepmother and my father became my stepson. Also, my wife became mother-in-law of her father-in-law. Then the
daughter of my wife, my stepmother, had a son.
This boy was my half-brother because he was my father’s son, but he was also the son of my wife’s daughter which made him my wife’s
grandson. That made me the grandfather of my half-brother. “This was nothing until my wife and I had a son. Now the half-sister of my son, my stepmother, is also my grandmother. “This makes
my father the brother-in-law of my child, whose stepsister is my father’s wife. I’m my
stepmother’s brother-in-law, my wife is her own child’s aunt, my son is my father’s nephew and I’m my own son’s grandfather! And you think you have family problems?

LESSONS ON LIFE

There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.

The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in the fall.

When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen.

The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted.

The second son said no it was covered with green buds and full of promise.

The third son disagreed; he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen.

The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping
with fruit, full of life and fulfillment.

The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they
had each seen but only one season in the tree's life.

He told them that you cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season, and that the essence of who they are and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.

If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring,
the beauty of your summer, fulfillment of your fall.

Moral:
Don't let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest.
Don't judge life by one difficult season.
Persevere through the difficult patches and better times are sure to come
sometime or later.

Tears may fall in the night....But Joy comes in the Morning!!!!!!....Stay Strong....Hold On...Keep Your Head up.....If The Lord Got YOU THIS Far....Believe in Him To See You To The END

Forgiveness

Excellent message:

It was their anniversary, and Funke was waiting for her husband Kunle to show up.

Things had changed since their marriage, the once couldn't-live-without-each-other cute couple had turned bitter fighting over every little thing. Both didn't like the way things had changed.

Funke was waiting to see if Kunle remembered it was their anniversary!

Just as the door bell rang, she ran to find her husband wet and smiling with a bunch of flowers in his hand.

The two started re-living the old days. Making up for fights, then was the plan for champagne, light music, - and it was raining! It was perfect timing.

But the romantic moment was paused when the phone in the bedroom rang.

Funke went to pick the phone  up and it was a man who spoke. "Hello ma'am I'm calling from the police station. Is this Mr. Kunle Adeoye's number?"

"Yes it is!"

"I'm sorry ma'am; but there was an accident and a man died. We got this number from his wallet, and we need you to come and identify his body."

Funke's heart sank.!!! She was shocked!

"But my husband is here with me" Funke said.

"Sorry ma'am, but the incident took place at 2 pm, when he was boarding the train."

Funke was about to lose her mind.

How could this happen?!

She had heard about the soul of the person coming to meet a loved one before it finally leaves for eternity!

She ran into the other room.

He was not there. It was true! Kunle had left her for good!!

Oh God! She would have died for another chance to mend every little fight! She rolled on the floor in pain. She had lost her chance! Forever!

Suddenly, there was a noise from the bathroom. The door opened and Kunle came out and said to Funke, "Darling, I forgot to tell you my wallet got stolen today".

LIFE MIGHT NOT GIVE YOU A SECOND CHANCE. SO NEVER WASTE A MOMENT WHEN YOU CAN STILL MAKE UP FOR YOUR WRONGS!!!

Let's start making amends with parents, siblings, friends, and many others whom we have offended, or who may have offended us or d one dat put tears in ur eye..

No one has a promised tomorrow. So, have a wonderful life with no regrets!

Many are landlords in the CEMETRY,
many are tenants in the MORTUARY,
many are candidates of OBITUARY.
But we are here, still worshiping in His
SANCTUARY,
He has been keeping us since JANUARY,
His good news filled up our DIARY,
He's doing all these without collecting a SALARY.
He's indeed an awesome God!

A letter from an 11 year old south African on xenophobia

How our inner Ego sometimes misjudges a PERSON

This could easily happen in Ghana. We are so quick to judge by outward appearance
How our inner Ego sometimes misjudges a PERSON

A lady in a faded grey dress and her husband, dressed in a home-spun suit walked in timidly without an appointment into the Harvard University President's outer office. The secretary could tell in a moment that such backwoods, country hicks had no business at Harvard and probably didn't even deserve to be in Harvard.

"We want to see the President "the man said softly.

"He'll be busy all day "the secretary snapped.

"We'll wait" the lady replied.

For hours the secretary ignored them, hoping that the couple would finally become discouraged and go away. They didn't and the secretary grew frustrated and finally decided to disturb the president..

"Maybe if you see them for a few minutes, they'll leave" she said to him. The President, stern faced and with dignity, strutted toward the couple.

The lady told him "We had a son who attended Harvard for one year. He loved Harvard. He was happy here. But about a year ago, he was accidentally killed. My husband and I would like to erect a memorial to him, somewhere on campus."

The president wasn't touched....He was shocked. "Madam "he said, gruffly, " we can't put up a statue for every person who attended Harvard and died. If we did, this place would look like a cemetery."

"Oh, no," the lady explained quickly” We don't want to erect a statue. We thought we would like to give a building to Harvard."

The president rolled his eyes. He glanced at the gingham dress and homespun suit, and then exclaimed, "A building! Do you have any earthly idea how much a building costs? We have over seven and a half million dollars in the physical buildings here at Harvard."

For a moment the lady was silent. The president was pleased. Maybe he could get rid of them now. The lady turned to her husband and said quietly, "Is that all it costs to start a university ? Why don't we just start our own?"

Her husband nodded. The president's face wilted in confusion and bewilderment. Mr. and Mrs. Leland Stanford got up and walked away, traveling to Palo Alto, California where they established the University that bears their name: Stanford University, a memorial to a son that Harvard no longer cared about.

Most of the time we judge people by their outer appearance, which can be misleading. And in this impression, we tend to treat people badly by thinking they can do nothing for us. Thus we tend to lose our potential good friends, employees or customers.

Remember
In our Life, we seldom get people with whom we want to share & grow our thought process. But because of our inner EGO we miss them forever.
