A Rolls Royce salesman in London
was trying to sell a Rolls Royce car to an India. The Indian refused to buy. In
frustration, the Salesman whispered that the Indian had no money and therefore
could not afford a Rolls Royce and that was why he was not buying. The Indian
overheard him.
The Salesman trembled when he
learnt that the Indian man was a king and a billionaire. Surely the king would
report him to his superiors.
The Salesman thought about his
pregnant wife, his lovely kids and the commission he makes from selling Rolls
Royce vehicles.
"Surely I will lose this job
and fall short in my mortgage payment. I and my family will certainly become
homeless," he lamented to himself.
Rolls Royce vehicles are very
expensive, so there are only few sales in a year. But his handsome commission
from each sale takes care of his family, keeps a roof over their heads and
keeps him fairly comfortable. He was about to lose everything because of his
flippant remarks.
He thought about committing
suicide to end it all.
In anger, the Indian King asked
him to prepare purchase voucher for 10 Rolls Royce cars immediately. The man
promptly paid.
"You think I cannot afford a
Rolls Royce? I am going to use these damn cars as my garbage vehicles."
the Indian man said to him with satisfaction.
Nobody in the history of Rolls
Royce Company had ever sold 10 Rolls Royce vehicles at once. The Salesman broke
a record.
The Salesman was immediately made
the Head of Marketing of Rolls Royce Company and his life changed forever.
Most times, when the cloud looks
so misty and clouded, it is about to rain.
We sometimes expect the worst but
get the best. This is one of life's intriguing abracadabras.
It is not over until it is over.
Life is not designed for our faintheartedness.Most times, we die before we die.
Sometimes an ugly situation can
be a blessing in disguise. Don't let us kill ourselves over an anticipated
problem that has not yet happened. It may never happen.
