Success story - "Out of box thinking"

Here we are going to read a story "Tale of two guys". My grandma was a great management guru. She was not CEO or MD of any industry. But she knows how to tell stories for motivating others and kindle their out of box thinking capability.

One such story..Here it is..

Note:Pls forgive the logical flaws.

There was a small nuclear family comprising two children and their parents. The two kids are both small boys. The elder kid is a funny boy, litlte lazy,but more smart with little big tummy. The younger kid is a hardworker, very serious (gets angry very fast), honest with a well built body.

One fine day their father and mother called for a competition between the kids. Parents will be the judge. Whoever will win the competition, he will get a prize money of 1billion dollar (It's Huge!!!). Yep., both of the guys get excited and enter into competition. Generally these kids love both other so much that they generally don't enter into competition with each other. But the prize money made them to enter into such competition( ofcourse everyone needs big money).

The competition is whoever comes round the world first (or fastest), they will get the prize money. Both were given a Honda 20,000 CC bike with full fuel tank and twenty thousand dollars to spend on the way (for their gas on the trip, food, accomodation and some fun). The elder brother know that he cannot compete and win his younger bro, who is a well built- hard worker. He being lazy has to opt for really smart idea.

By the time he was thinking of the idea, the younger one got into the action. Whizzzz..sound comes..yes he departed..he was into race immediately. Now the elder one was thinking how to make his parents happy and earn the big money. He was a typical manager who knows how to get the work done in a smart way. He dont want to spend energy, waste fuel. He also wanted to cut the cost.

So he was thinking in several ways, different angles. He got it..He got the idea..Yes. He got the real idea. He went to his parents. They were standing together. He went around them in a circle. He said them "Both father and mother together forms his world". By going around them, he achieved his target of coming around the world. His parents got so much excited. He said they are his world. They were really happy to have a kid who thinks that they are the world. They immediately announced that he is the winner (Unfair????).

He got the big sum of 1 billion dollar..Smart guy!!!!!!!!

Note again: I think now you guys really would have understood who this brilliant guy is and who the other hardworker is....!!!!!!!!
For those who dont know..it is the story of Lord Muruga and Lord Ganesha in Tamilnadu, India.
