A jobless man applied for the position of \u2018office boy\u2019 at a very big company.\n

The employer interviewed him, then a test: clean the floor.\n

\u201cYou are hired.\u201d \u2013 the employer said. \u201dGive me your email address, and I\u2019ll send you the application to fill out, as well as when you will start.\u201d\n

The man replied, \u201cI don\u2019t have a computer or an email.\u201d\n

\u201cI\u2019m sorry,\u201d said the employer, \u201cif you don\u2019t have an email, you cannot have the job.\u201d\n

The man left with no hope. He didn\u2019t know what to do, with only USD 10 in his pocket.\n

He then decided to go to the supermarket, bought a 10 kg tomato crate, then sold the tomatoes door to door. In less than two hours, he succeeded and doubled his capital. He repeated the operation 3 times and returned home with USD 60. The man realized that he could survive this way, and started to go every day earlier, and returned late. Thus, his money doubled or tripled every day. Shortly later, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his fleet of delivery vehicles.\n

Five years later, the man\u2019s company was one of the biggest food retailers. He started to plan his family\u2019s future, and decided to have life insurance. He called an insurance broker and chose a protection plan. When the conversation was concluded, the broker asked him for his email. The man replied: \u201cI don\u2019t have an email.\u201d\n

The broker replied curiously, \u201cYou don\u2019t have an email, and yet have succeeded in building an empire. Do you imagine what position you could have if you had an email?\u201d\n

The man paused for a while, and replied: \u201cAn office boy!\u201d\n

Don\u2019t be discouraged if something is not in your favor today. Better opportunities are always waiting ahead.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
