THE TOURIST AND PORTUGUESE FISHERS

A boat was docked in a tiny Portuguese fishing village.

A tourist complimented the local fishermen on the quality of their fish and... asked how long it took to catch them.

"Not very long" they answered in unison.

"Why didn't you stay out longer and catch more?"

The fishermen explained that their small catches were sufficient to meet their needs and those of their families.

"But what do you do with the rest of your time?"

"We sleep late, fish a little, play with our children, and take siestas with our wives. In the evenings, we go into the village to see our friends, have a few beers, play the guitar, and sing a few fados and songs. We have a full life."

The tourist interrupted, "I have an MBA from Harvard and I can help you! You should start by fishing longer every day. You can then sell the extra fish you catch. With the extra revenue, you can buy a bigger boat."

"And after that?"

"With the extra money the larger boat will bring, you can buy a second one and a third one 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 maybe even open your own plant. You can then leave this little village and move to Lisbon, London or even New York City!!! From there you can direct your huge new enterprise."

"How long would that take?"

"Twenty, perhaps twenty-five years." replied the tourist.

"And after that?"

"Afterwards? Well my friend, that's when it gets really interesting," answered the tourist, laughing. "When your business gets really big, you can start buying and selling stocks and make millions!"

"Millions? Really? And after that?" asked the fishermen.

"After that you'll be able to retire, live in a tiny village near the coast, sleep late, play with your children, catch a few fish, take a siesta with your wife and spend your evenings drinking and enjoying your friends."

"With all due respect sir, but that's exactly what we are doing now. So what's the point wasting twenty-five years?" asked the Fishermen.

And the moral of this story is:

Know where you're going in life, you may already be there! Many times in life, money is not everything.

“Live your life before life becomes lifeless”

EDUCATION AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP

*Jack MA*, The Richest Man in China said:

_If you put Bananas and Money in front of Monkeys, Monkeys will choose Bananas because monkeys do not know that *Money can buy a lot of Bananas*._

IN REALITY,
if you offer JOB and BUSINESS to people, they would choose JOB because most people do not know that BUSINESS can bring more MONEY than Wages.

Similarly,
*Robert Kiyosaki*, author of the best selling book "RICH DAD, POOR DAD" and also a business partner of Donald Trump said:
_"One of the reasons poor are poor, is because they are NOT TRAINED TO RECOGNIZE ENTREPRENEURSHIP OPPORTUNITIES._

They spend too much time in school and what they have learnt in school, is to WORK FOR WAGES instead of MONEY WORKING FOR THEM.

*"Profit is better than Wages, for Wages can make you a living but Profits can bring you a Fortune."*

*THINK INVESTMENT* and stop fighting over increments of salaries, it still won't be enough
......
*Hear this from a Professor to freshmen and women during their orientation:* (Actually he is an Acting DVC Academic at a small/new university in Kenya)

"Academic excellence is overrated!
Being top of your class does not necessarily guarantee that you will be at the top of life.
You could graduate as the best student in Finance but it doesn't mean you will make more money than everybody else.
The best graduating Law student does not necessarily become the best lawyer.
The fact is, life requires more than the ability to understand a concept, memorise it and reproduce it in an exam.
School rewards people for their memory.
Life rewards people for their imagination.
School rewards caution, life rewards daring.
School hails those who live by the rules. Life exalts those who break the rules and set new ones.
So do I mean people shouldn't study hard in school? Oh, no, you should. But don't sacrifice every other thing on the altar of First Class.
Don't limit yourself to the classroom. Do something practical. Take a leadership position.
Start a business and fail. That's a better Entrepreneurship 101.
Join or start a club. Contest an election and lose. It will teach you something Political Science 101 will not teach you.
Attend a seminar.
Read books outside the scope of your course.
Go on missions and win a soul for eternal rewards...
Do something you believe in!
Think less of becoming an excellent student but think more of becoming an excellent person.
Don't make the classroom to be your world but Make the world your classroom.
Step forward, try politics, try farming, try business, try an extra thing . ."

I AM SLOWLY LEARNING

I AM SLOWLY LEARNING.  (copied)

1- *I’m Slowly Learning That I Don’t Have To React To Everything That Bothers Me*

2- **I’m slowly learning that I don’t have to hurt those who hurt me.*

3- *I’m slowly learning that maybe the ultimate sign of maturity is walking away instead of getting even**

4- *I’m slowly learning that the energy it takes to react to every bad thing that happens to you drains you and stops you from seeing the other good things in life.*

5- **I’m slowly learning that I’m not going to be everyone’s cup of tea and I won’t be able to get everyone to treat me the way I want to be treated and that’s okay.*

6-  *I’m slowly learning that trying so hard to ‘win’ anyone is just a waste of time and energy and it fills you with nothing but emptiness.**

7- *I’m slowly learning that not reacting doesn’t mean I’m okay with things, it just means I’m choosing to rise above it. I’m choosing to take the lesson it has served and learn from it*

*I’m choosing to be the bigger person. I’m choosing my peace of mind because that’s what I truly need. I don’t need more drama. I don’t need people making me feel like I’m not good enough. I don’t need fights and arguments and fake connections.*

9- *I’m slowly learning that sometimes not saying anything at all says everything.*

10- *I’m slowly learning that reacting to things that upset you gives someone else power over your emotions*
*You can’t control what others do but you can control how you respond, how you handle it, how you perceive it and how much of it you want to take personally.*

11- *I’m slowly learning that most of the time, these situations say nothing about you and a lot about the other person.*

12- *I’m slowly learning that maybe all these disappointments are just there to teach us how to love ourselves because that will be the armor and the shield we need against the people who try to bring us down. They will save us when people try to shake our confidence or when they try to make us feel like we’re worthless.*

13- *I’m slowly learning that even if I react, it won’t change anything, it won’t make people suddenly love and respect me, it won’t magically change their minds*

14- *I’m slowly learning that Sometimes it’s better to just let things be, let people go, don’t fight for closure, don’t ask for explanations, don’t chase answers and don’t expect people to understand where you’re coming from.**

15- *I’m slowly learning that life is better lived when you don’t centre it on what’s happening around you and centre it on what’s happening inside you instead.*

*Work on yourself and your inner peace and you’ll come to realise that not reacting to every little thing that bothers you is the first ingredient to living a happy and healthy life.*

M. SCHUMACHER AND EMPTINESS OF LIFE

🔵 Sometimes I start
      doing an evaluation
      of my life.

🔵 In one of those I
      came across the
     story of the formula 1
     Michael Shumacher.

🔵 When I studied his
       resume as an athlete
       I saw that he was:

🔵 Winner of the Grand
      Prix in 1991.

🔵 He was 7 (seven
     times) world
  champion of Formula 1.

🔵 Happiness was in his
      Being, but in one fateful
      day his story and his
      destiny completely
      changed due to a slight
      accident ....

🔵 Today, with just 44
       kilos of weight
       struggling to "survive"
       since December
       2013.

🔵 His wife begins to
      sell the goods to
      cover the expenses
      and thus be able to
      keep him alive in a
      room adapted in his
      house, where he lies
      like a vegetable.

🔵 Here comes a
      question:

🔵 Who is better than
      who?

🔵 Life can take
      directions never
      imagined.

🔵 It's amazing how
      everything can
      change in an instant.

🔵 No one is exempt
      from anything.

🔵 And in no
      circumstances are
      they of any use,
      Money,
      Titles,
      Fame,
      Success,
      Power.

🔵 We are all the same.

🔵 Then why the pride?

🔵 To make the claim?

🔵 Why arrogance?

🔵 For that
      victimization?

🔵 Why so much
      attachments to
      material goods?

🔵 To make you angry?

Do you think your version is the absolute truth?

🔵 All we have is the day
       today so that we can
       live it with passion
       and enjoy ourselves
       to the fullest, doing
       good, serving our
       neighbors and full of
       joy.

🔵 We need to stop
      creating problems,
      claim insignificant
      things, and always
      avoid everything that
      "takes our lives".

🔵 Be careful not to lose
      someone who loves
      you and accepts you
      as you are.

🔵 As in the game of
      chess, in the end both
      the King and the
      Pawn are kept in the
      same box.

🔵 It is worth examining
      what we have done.

🔵 We are born without
      bringing anything ...
     we die without taking.
     anything! absolutely
     nothing!.

🔵 And the sad thing is
      that in the interval
      between life and
      death, we fight for
      what we did not bring
      and even more for
      what we will not
      take ...

🔵 Think about that,
       Let's live more, let's
       love more. Let's
      always understand
      the other and be
      happier!

🔵 They sent it to me
       and I want to share it
       with you and all my
       best friends, because
       it seemed an
       interesting reflection.

🔴 I wish we never
      forgot that to be
      great.
- You have to be humble.

DESTROYING A NATION BY LOWERING STANDARDS

At the entrance gate of a university in South Africa the following message was posted for contemplation:

*"Destroying any nation does not require the use of atomic bombs or the use of long range missiles. _It only requires lowering the quality of education and allowing cheating in the examinations by the students._"*

Patients die at the hands of such doctors.

Buildings collapse at the hands of such engineers.

Money is lost at the hands of such economists & accountants.

Humanity dies at the hands of such religious scholars.

Justice is lost at the hands of such judges...

*"The collapse of education is the collapse of the nation."*

Please share if you concur.

THERE IS SOLUTION FOR EVERYTHING

A father left 17 ducks as assets for his Three Sons.

When the Father passed away, his sons opened up the will.

The Will of the Father stated that the Eldest son should get Half of 17 ducks,

The Middle Son should be given 1/3rd of 17 ducks,

Youngest Son should be given 1/9th of the 17 ducks

As it is not possible to divide 17 into half or 17 by 3 or 17 by 9, the sons started to fight with each other.

So, they decided to go to a wise man who lived in a cave for advice.

The wise man listened patiently about the Will. The wise man, after giving the dilemma some thought, brought a duck of his own & added same to the 17. That increased the total to 18 ducks.

Now, he started reading the deceased father’s will.

Half of 18 = 9.
So he gave 9 ducks
to the eldest son.

1/3rd of 18 = 6.
So he gave 6 ducks
to the middle son.

And, 1/9th of 18 = 2.
So he gave 2 ducks
to the youngest son.

Now add this up:
9 + 6 + 2 = 17 &
This leaves 1 duck
which the wise man took back.

MORAL: There is ALWAYS a solution (despite the challenges). The attitude of negotiation & problem solving is to find the 18th duck, i.e. the common ground. Once a person is able to find the common ground, the issue is resolved. It is difficult at times but a resolution will be reached.

However, to reach a solution, the first step is to believe that there is a solution. If we think that there is no solution, we won’t be able to reach any!

If you liked this story,  please share with all. You might spark a thought, inspire & possibly change a life forever!

A very interesting management lesson.

THE PROBLEM WITH DEGREE

MY PROBLEM WITH THE DEGREE. MY ENCOUNTER WITH GRADUATES/UNIVERSITY STUDENTS.

By Henry Mutebe

Yesterday, a friend called to check on me. It had been long since we talked. He asked if I had sometime so I could roll over and check on him. I was happy to go check on him. After we had finished University, he had started a small restaurant in town. It has grown exponentially over the years. When I arrived at the restaurant, I was very impressed by how many leaps he had made, in what I believe to be a short time for a business like his. We shuffled through the memories and had a hearty laugh.

As hours went by, I noticed that when customers entered and took seats, he was attending to them and doing a lot of the serving. I asked him if he didn’t have enough staff. He told me that one of the girls working at the restaurant was sick while another guy simply didn’t show up or call to let him know…so he was short of labour. I asked if I can help. He joked, ‘Henry you know I can’t afford you. Here I pay 10,000shs to the attendants. How will I manage to pay you?'  I told him am happy to work.

I quickly oriented myself on the etiquette and customer care rules …and most importantly what was available. So we started serving people that came in. In total, I served about 8 clients before something interesting happened.

As we talked and laughed about the crazy things we did in school, two students I taught at University (a gentleman and lady) came by. They did not immediately notice I was the one but their eyes kept preying on me to confirm they were seeing the ‘real person.’

To confirm their disbelief, I asked my friend to let me serve them. So I went over, humbled myself, bent slightly, greeted them and asked to take their orders. They were very surprised and asked me, ‘What are you doing here sir?’ I told them that am there to serve them.  They looked at each other and with the face of mixed feelings wondered why I would be working in a restaurant.

The girl asked, ‘Sir, but why are you working here? You can’t serve us. I mean…?’ she nodded her head in disbelief before continuing, ‘…you can’t work in a restaurant?’. I told them I would serve them and am happy to take their orders. You could easily notice that they were very surprised and reserved about placing their orders.

They had mixed feelings about my presence there and the type of work I was doing.  After a very interesting exchange, they finally made their order which I delivered promptly. They had their delicious meal as we also continued conversing and reminiscing the years gone by. From time to time, I kept checking on them and asked if they needed anything else. When they were done, my friend punched in the bill, printed the receipt and I delivered it to them.

Their bill was 24,500shs. I placed it on the table and took the plates away. The guy placed two notes (a 20k and 10k shs) on the table and they left. I delivered it to my friend, who was now serving as manager, cashier and sometimes a waiter. He gave me back the change of 5,500shs which I happily slipped into my wallet.  By the way ...by this time, I had 15,000shs in tips from the other 8 clients I had served. So by adding this 5500shs, I was 20,500shs rich already.

As the couple (my former students) went out, they each looked back in disbelief. I looked at them and raised my hand to say bye. They walked into the street and faded away into the bright light from approaching cars. A couple of other clients came in and I served them. My friend was very pleased and paid my 10000shs and a bonus of 2000shs which he says he offers once a waiter exceeds a certain number of clients.  At 11pm, I left the restaurant and went home.

As I sat in the car to head back home, I couldn’t help thinking about my students. Their disbelief was innocent…but it speaks a lot about a general problem we have in our society. These two students represent thousands of others. They made me think, very deeply, about our Ugandan graduates. I do not blame them, its a general problem.

I have had the opportunity to travel and study from elsewhere or in other cultures and I have always been surprised by how people in other countries don’t despise jobs. My good students could not imagine their lecturer serving them in a restaurant. Since they know my work and qualifications, they could not understand how I can be in a restaurant at this time. As if it takes away my degree or other job. It gave me a lot of thoughts about our graduates. The more I have travelled, the more I have learned and unlearned.

In 2012, while at Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine in England, one of my classmates used to drive a BMW, park it at a restaurant and work as a waiter. He came from a very wealthy family but he still worked. He told me that as soon as he completed high school, he had to take part time jobs to earn some money to pay rent to his father and contribute to household bills. It shocked me quite a lot considering what I have grown up seeing in my part of the world.

As if this was not enough, I also found out that, when students finish high school in these countries, as must, they have to find some work and either rent out, or pay their parents some money for rent if they are to continue staying in their parent’s house.  I was shocked by the idea of a son paying rent to his father. It took time to sink in. The more I interacted with more of these people, the more I realised that this is a common culture. They teach a child responsibility from a very early age. Work is not for money per se, it is a service.

The lesson I learnt from them is that working is a value. One has to work and parents teach their children that they have to work and earn. Just because your parents are wealthy doesn’t mean your life is already worked out. You have to contribute to the home bills and somehow find something to do. The work doesn’t have to be white collar …but as a must, you have to find something to put your hands to. You cant seat your bums and just wait for a white collar job.

When I went to Norway, I found the same story. Most university students, unless they simply can’t find time due to course overload, have to have some form of temporary work. Students often work as attendants, waiters in restaurants, cleaners in hotels, shop attendants, drivers, newspaper vendors, et cetera. It is a value to work and few people dont despise jobs.

By the way, they don’t work because their parents can’t give them money. They work because it is a value that has been embedded in them from childhood. Once a student finishes high school, they take on a part time job and save money for use at university or travels. Few parents will buy their child a ticket to come to Africa to tour. You have to work and save for your luxuries. 

If you want some money from your parents, you borrow and pay back. Nothing comes free. They teach you to live on your own. Being at University or having a degree is ‘nothing.’ You are not the first or the last. Serving people in a restaurant does not make anyone look less a graduate. Service is service! Work is a value.

As a matter of fact, most of the places near Universities are filled with university students working as part timers. University students are encouraged to take up these part time jobs. The white people we like to imitate are doing what we think is too dirty or casual for a graduate in Africa.

It got me thinking about students in our Universities here in Uganda. I thought about all the restaurants around Wandegeya, Banda –Kyambogo, MUBS, and the attitude of University students and graduates about these type of jobs. I thought about the poor attitude we have towards work. I looked at the chapatti boys and girls we despise who are minting money and doing great things in their lives and for their families. I thought about the people who fear nothing, who go out and just do it while we sit back.

The more I thought about it the more I realised why we are going to take longer to develop. We have a generation of young people who feel they are too educated to do certain jobs. We have a generation of children who have been prepared for a life that doesn’t exist. We have a crop of young people who are whiter than the whites. My time in Europe taught me that we need to get back on the drawing board and re-orient our graduates.

Students in our universities should be oriented to appreciate the value of work. There is no reason why a University should not employ students to clean the Library, kitchen, dining halls, hostels. It is improper that a university canteen should find external staff when it has over 30,000 students who can work in shifts and serve other students.

See, through this kind of work, being able to do ordinary jobs and be seen as a servant makes you true leaders. When students grow up with a sense of entitlement and a higher standard of living, it translates into greed when they get into national politics. They apportion themselves good things, higher privileges and want to float above everyone because work is about money, status and not service. Such humble work makes true leaders.

People who are willing to serve, and not merely earn make better leaders. Such work raises a generation of leaders who don’t do things to be seen or be thought of as higher and more qualified, but leaders who get things done. In some firms in western societies, when they look at a CV, such experience, demonstrates the attitude of a person, their humility, values and philosophy towards work. 

We are raising a generation of children whose only image of the west is what they watch on TV. They speak using enhanced accents, know what is the latest, they are ‘cool’ but they have no idea what makes the west what it is. My experience in the west shows me something different. People work and do ordinary jobs and that’s how things get done.

If we are to get good leaders, we must first change the attitude of young people about work. An inflated self-image creates bad leaders who want to further segregate themselves from the ordinary people they consider low and less qualified. We have a big problem in our society and we have to find a way to deal with it.

Students despise these jobs because they believe work is about status and money. Taken further into their lives, it means they may likely want to maintain status and money as their pursuits when they get into leadership positions. If we must correct our leadership and governance problems, we may also need to do something about the attitude of students and graduates about their philosophies and values about work. In there, lies a very big problem.

Do not despise work, go out there and just work. The pope was once a bouncer at a club. Today he is one of the most powerful men in the world. Imagine that you had nothing to fear, what would you do to earn a living? Imagine that you had no degree or that anyone cares, what would you do to earn a living? Imagine, that no one is going to help you find a job, what would do?

I am not saying go do what you dont like...but may be...just may be you may need to develop a new attitude towards work, serve people (in whatever opportunities unfold) and be happy to have served. You can never tell what the future holds, and you may never know who you will meet at your humble place of work. Most interestingly, you may never know the untold story of those who work and serve you in those places where you go as the bosses or the rich.

Even for you that are already employed in 'high' places, don’t mind going out and just find a part time job (if you have time) or offer services in the evening or weekend at any place where your services can be of use. Meet people, network and just keep yourself active. Degrees are everywhere...literally every one has them...so just forget about the whole hype about it and be true to yourself. As you look for other opportunities...dont be afraid to branch off a little and keep yourself at something. Don’t despise jobs. Serve.

**This orientation is what we want for our generation next**

SIXTEEN UNWRITTEN RULES, BE CIVILIZED!

1. Don’t call someone more than twice continuously. If they don’t pick up your calls, that means they
have something more important to attend to, or they are not near their phones at that time.

2.When your colleague/ classmate/ team-mate, neighbour, gets shouted at, please don’t stare at
them. It makes the moment twice awkward.

3.When someone drops something on the floor by mistake, drops food from the plate or doesn’t know
how to use a knife/fork don’t stare at them. The same goes to people sneezing, coughing or even
letting out an uncontrollable fart. They are all involuntary actions.

4. Always skip using the washroom beside the occupied one. It makes it uneasy for the person in the
occupied washroom as well as yourself, if you occupy the one right next to theirs.

5. Return money that you have borrowed even before the other person remembers that he lent it to
you, be it #100, #100,000 or #1, 000,000. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with
borrowed umbrellas, pens, lunch boxes or any other item you borrow.

6.Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone is taking you to lunch/dinner. If
possible, ask them to order their choice of food for you.

7.Don’t ask awkward questions like, ‘Oh, so you aren’t married yet?’ Or ‘Don’t you have kids?’ or ‘Why
didn’t you buy a house?’ it can embarrass or
devastate the person. Have common sense!

8.When someone makes a wrong investment and loses their money, don’t add fuel to the flames by
saying ‘I knew this would happen. You should have listened to me’. Don’t make failure seem worse for anyone.

9.Always open the door for the person coming behind you. It doesn’t matter if it is a male or a female. You
don’t grow small by treating someone well in public or by being kind.

10.Wear ear phones when travelling on a subway, car or bus. Don’t make others taste your choice of
good/bad music. Don't put them through the pain of listening to music under compulsion, no matter how good you think the song or sound is, always assume they are not in the mood for it.

11.Don't visit anyone/knock on people's doors unannounced irrespective of how close, younger junior they are to you. call them up and have an appointment some days or at least a day before your visit, except its an unavoidable emergency that probably involves one-on-one seeing and not a phone talk.

12.When you knock on someone's door, wait for a response before going in.Knocking means "can I come in?" and not "I am coming in". Get a response from inside the house before you know what next to do. No response? Then go back.

13.When you stretch out your hand to give or take a handshake, always, always accompany it with a smile and a direct look into the other person's eyes. Make your handshake firm especially for guys.

14.Try to chew your food with your mouth closed. If you don't learn this in the privacy of your home, you will surely forget it when you are eating in the public to the utmost disgust of others who have to listen to you chew.

15.Always go out with an handkerchief with the prevalence of air borne diseases and germs, the least you could do for yourself is cover your mouth when you yawn and sneeze. In as much as you don't want to pick up something new, you should not also spread some of yours.

16.The  most important one! Don't swipe left or right when someone hands over their phone to you for viewing a particular picture, except he/she permits you to. And also don't browse through their messages and call lists. People's phones and the contents are their private property, learn to respect that.

***These are the true traits of being educated*****

Thanks for being civil.
