The first fisherman saw lightning and got scared. He didn’t want to get wet and cold so he packed up his things and hurried back to shore.
The second fisherman was also a bit afraid but chose to stay and worked hard in the rain and cold until late in the afternoon. Then he saw a rock formation resembling a tunnel in the distance and decided to take shelter there while he kept fishing until sunset.
Surprisingly, it turned out fish were abundant in this spot under the tunnel. The second fisherman was shocked and delighted with himself.
Back in the harbour the first fisherman had spend the afternoon in the canteen and as he came out to head back home the two fishermen met and talked about their catch of the day.
The first one said angrily: “Terrible day, I didn’t catch a thing. There’s just nothing out there these days. My family will have to eat potatoes for dinner again tonight!”
The second fisherman nodded and smiled while loading his bike with bags full of fresh fish.
This story illustrates the what in my opinion make a lot of rich people richer and a lot of poor people poorer, healthy people healthier and unhealthy people stay unhealthy, fit people even fitter and unfit people stay unfit.
When you live your life with an attitude of expectation, you believe in yourself and your talents, you can take action and take risks now, because when you persevere and never ever ever give up, amazing things will happen for you. When you adapt to new circumstances and keep working on your goals through change, rough or calm seas, you are working with the unwritten laws of the universe to make your goals come true. You are now more powerful than you ever thought.
