­The Blind Man

One day, there was a blind man sitting on the steps of a building

with a hat by his feet and a sign that read: " I am blind, please

help. "

A creative publicist was walking by and stopped to observe. He saw

that the blind man had only a few coins in his hat. He dropped in

more coins and, without asking for permission, took the sign and

rewrote it.

He returned the sign to the blind man and left. That afternoon the

publicist returned to the blind man and noticed that his hat was full

of bills and coins.

The blind man recognized his footsteps and asked if it was he who had

rewritten his sign and wanted to know what he had written on it.

The publicist responded: " Nothing that was not true. I just wrote the

message a little differently. " He smiled and went on his way.

The new sign read: " Today is Spring and I cannot see it. "

Sometimes we need to change our strategy. If we always do what we've

always done, we'll always get what we've always gotten.

And remember too, sometimes it's not WHAT we say, it's HOW we say it!!
