A boat docked in a tiny Goanese village. An NRI tourist complimented the Goanese fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took him to catch them.
"Not very long," answered the Fisherman.
"But then, why didn't you stay out longer and catch more?" asked the
NRI.
The fisherman explained that his small catch was sufficient to meet his
and his family needs.
"Good....But what do you do with the rest of your time?" NRI asked.
"I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, and have dinner with wife and children then take a long walk with my wife. In the late evening, I go to the village with my wife to see my friends, their I play guitar, sing a few songs...and dance altogether.....just enjoying the life at fullest."
NRI interrupted : "Hey how can U live like this...? U're wasting your time. U should think about the development....some constructive things.....U have tremendous potentials and oppourtunity to grow and earn millions and crores of rupees.
Fisherman : Oh..! thats great..!!
NRI : I'm an MBA from Oxford, and I can help you to grow and get rich, I'll show U the way to earn millions and crores of rupees.
Fisherman : But, what I'll do with all these millions and crores of rupees?
NRI : Ohhh....U poor guy..! These money will give U more comfort, happiness and peace.
Fisherman : Oh...really..! How..?
NRI : You should start by fishing longer every day. You can then sell the extra fish you catch, which increase your revenue, with that extra revenue, you can buy a bigger boat."
"OK, then?" asked the Fisherman.
"Then, you can buy a second one and third and so on until you have an entire fleet of
trawlers. Instead of selling your fish to a middle man, you can then negotiate directly with the processing plants and you can open your own plant and even U can start exporting the fish so you can earn money in dollar too....for that U have to leave this little village and move to big city like Mumbai, Banglore or Delhi ! So U can operate & expand your business very well."
"That's really woderful but how long would it take?" asked the Fisherman.
"Fifteen or twenty years," replied the NRI.
"And after that?"
"Afterwards? Well my Friend, it gets really interesting."
When U have millions and crores of rupees in your hand then U dont need to worry about any....anything in your life.....just get retire and start enjoy every moment of your life, buy a farm house at small village, sing-dance, catch a fish, play with your children, take your wife for candle light dinner and celebrate every evening with your friends......just enjoy the life and do anything U want..!
"Thats what I'm doing right now, I'm enjoying every moment of my life, Sir..!
Why should I wait for 15-20 years...??? asked Fisherman.
Friends, enjoy every moment of your life....'cause U want get second chance, although money is very very important thing in life but U can not buy a single second with crores of rupees which is gone away......just think what U R doing and where U're going in life.....U may be already there...right now...!!
Last Words :
"Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect.
It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections"
