This is a nice story i had read somewhere, I dont even remember where.
So this bigshot golfer wins a tournament and is awarded a check as the first prize. While he is loking to move to his home and is starting up his car in the parking lot, he is approached by a young woman. The lady tells him that she has a sick child in the hospital and if not operated her kid would die in want of medical care. So our man the golfer is touched by her story and gives her the winner's check that he had received.
Next day his manager comes up to him and asks him about the check that he had received and he narrates to him the incident about the woman and her baby. The manager rolls up his eyes and tells him that the woman is phoney and doesn't even have a kid and the golfer had just been duped for a truckload of money.
to his surprise the golfer gets excited and gets up and hugs the manager and says "So you mean to say that there is no baby dying today?"
The whole idea fellas is to take whatever comes your way, in a positive sense. Sachin Tendulkar said something which stuck with me. In a press conference he said that in life sometimes there are stones thrown at you and it feels good to turn those stones into milestones.
OK too much wisdom for one day!!!
Cheers!!!
