Friday Funnies: "I don't THINK so!"

Friday Funnies: "I don't THINK so!"

Once upon a time a princess met a frog in the forest. The frog said he was a handsome prince until an evil witch cast a spell on him.

Friday Funnies:

"Kiss me, we'll marry and live in the castle." Then you can:

Do all the laundry
Mend my clothes
Cook the meals
Clean the castle
Have my children

As she was eating frog legs for dinner a little later, the independent princess kept licking her lips and saying to herself, "I don't THINK so!"

The moral of this story is a little negotiation on their part could have had yielded positive results for both. And just because some wish to see everything in their life a certain way, doesn't mean everyone else is on board. Be less demanding, open the mind and allow people to express their point-of-views, their ideas and their wishes. Be less hasty to make a life altering decision that adversely affects another.

After all, this story could have had a happy ending for both the prince and the princess instead of a WIN / LOSE outcome.

Nah!

It's just a fairy tale!

Wanda, I don't understand???? He was offering her so much, and she couldn't read between the lines? Marry the Prince, with no pre-nup, then have the frog's legs for dinner and be as widowed Princess!

Win and lose as an outcome is never a good thing. I think we had a pretty smart Princess in this story Wanda ha ha.

All or nothing just does not cut it for the most part. That could be a stressful time and i am not for that at all.

Very cute joke and I like the comparison to make a point...and a valid point it is. There are clients and agents that believe win - lose is the only way...oftentimes to the detriment of the very thing they are trying to "win".

What was wrong with the princes' view? ;-)

I think I know why a witch turned him into a frog!

Its funny, Wanda, how perspective can change one's outlook... this story is quite different depending on whether you are looking at it from the frog or the princess ;-)

William, In business the 'highway or my way' mentality just does not work! For long anyway!

Ken, You have good business sense, thank you for that!

Ha-ha Than! He could have had it all!

Sandy, Glad you were smart to get away from that one...no prince indeed!

True Chris! And point of view does play into this! Princess - 1 / Prince - 0

Michael, Glad you enjoyed it!
