标题: a very good speech by the CEO of COCA COLA [打印本页] 作者: towwqq 时间: 2003-6-20 11:55 标题: a very good speech by the CEO o "Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them - work, family, health, friends and spirit
and you're keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back.
But the other four balls - family, health, friends and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered.
They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life."
--How? 作者: towwqq 时间: 2003-6-20 11:56 标题: and how ? * Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different, each of us is special.
* Don't set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.
* Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as they would your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
* Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future.By living your life one day at a time, you live all days of your life.
* Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
* Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us together.
* Don't be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
* Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find time. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
* Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going.
* Don't forget, a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.
* Don't be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.
* Don't use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved. Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way. 作者: pinksun 时间: 2003-6-20 18:15 标题: a nice speech we all have these "five balls", which one do you care most?

other the silent treatment. The next week the man realized that he would
need his wife to wake him at 5:00 am for a flight to Europe. Not wanting to
be the first to break the silence, he finally wrote on a piece of paper,
"Please wake me tomorrow morning at 5:00 am". The next morning the man woke
up, only to discover it was 9:00am, and that he had missed his flight.
Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't woken him when he
noticed a piece of paper by the bed....it said "It's 5:00am, wake up."作者: towwqq 时间: 2003-7-19 16:16 标题: Always allow the bosses to spea A junior manager, a senior manager and their boss are on their way to a meeting.
On their way through a park, they come across a wonder lamp.
They rub the lamp and a ghost appears. The ghost says, "Normally, one is
granted three wishes but as you are three, I will allow one wish each"
So the eager senior manager shouted, I want the first wish. I want to be in the
Bahamas, on a fast boat and have no worries. "Pfufffff, and he was gone.
Now the junior manager could not keep quiet and shouted " I want to be in
Florida with beautiful girls, plenty of food and cocktails. "Pfufffff, and he
was also gone.
The boss calmly said," I want these two idiots back in the office after lunch at
12.35pm"
Moral of the story is:
" Always allow the bosses to speak first"
