My shoe lesson number one.
Back in my days as a salesman, I was on my way to deliver a speech in
Newfoundland. Sitting comfortably in the airplane seat, I suddenly broke out in a cold sweat as I realized I had left my dress shoes at home. I was wearing running shoes for an important speech.
I knew I could buy a new pair when I landed. Too late; the stores were already closed. What about in the morning? No, the next day was Sunday and my speech was scheduled for 9:00 a.m. Ninety seconds later, however, my cold sweat has been replaced with a single idea.
The next morning, I began my speech, “You might be wondering why I am wearing running shoes today. Well, it’s about this request here. When I’m done speaking, I’ll be running door to door and I want every one of you to come running with me, too.” My little “goof-up” became a clever demonstration(示范) of action speaking louder than words.
My shoe lesson number two.
My brother was getting married. We had just witnessed the signing of the papers at their house, and they were rushing over to another place for the ceremony. As we
locked up their house, my wife’s shoes broke. So off to the nearest shoe store we flew. We knew they would wait for us before starting the ceremony. What we did not know was how long they would wait.
That day, my wife performed a miracle(奇迹)that no other woman had done before or since. She went into the store and came out just five minutes later with the perfect pair of shoes.
Perhaps the most important lesson here is that, contrary/opposite to popular belief, the shoe does not make the man/woman. But the lack(缺乏) of shoes can surely build character.
