The Starfish

I will warn you that this has nothing to do with real estate but it is a great Sunday afternoon story and a story I used to tell children that I was teaching. A story that I hope will stick with you for life.

A boy was walking down the beach one afternoon all of a sudden a starfish flew out of the water and hit him. He threw it back into the water and suddenly two more flew out. He threw them back and again the number of fish that flew our doubled this went on for hours and he could not keep up.

A man was walking down the beach and saw the scene and watched for a bit. He shaked his head in disbelief. He then went over to the boy and told him," son why are you even trying. you know that you are falling behind, that this is hopeless and what you are doing is not making a difference"

The boy turned to the man and said the great words "It made a difference to that one"

Go out there and make a difference to someone today.

Have a great afternoon!

Best wishes,

Bob - that truly was a good story.  I try to make a difference every day.  Sometimes I'm successful, other day's I'm not.  But I still try daily.  :-)
