Some simply donated without taking tickets, sometimes even $5.00 or $10.00. I was touched . So I continued my job with more energy. Then , a group of Spanish farm workers entered the hall.

I had seen these men working hard on the farm in the sun on a very hot summer day. I knew they needed every dollar. But I realized that they should be shown the same respect shown to every local citizen. They also deserved the chance to donate to such a program, even if they had little! But what could I do? My Spanish was very poor, but I had to do it. I knew two little words.When they came out of the store, I walked toward them with those two little wordsPor favor(Please).

As fish populations were decreasing, fishing companies were forced to fish further and further away from the shore. Then they had a big challenge how to keep the fish fresh for longer. So they decided to keep the fish stored in freezers on the boats. But the public did not like frozen fish. So again the fishing companies had a new bigger challenge. What they decided to do was to have fish tanks on their boats. After catching fishes, they would put them in the tanks and keep them living there until they got back to shore. But in this protected environment, lacking predators (掠食者), the fish stopped moving around. The Japanese public felt these dull fish did not taste fresh, which had an unpleasant effect upon sales. Once again the fishing companies had an even bigger challenge Stop for a minute! Before we go any further, I would like to ask “What are your challenges? How do you handle an unexpected challenge? ” May I think it this way that you should try to attack your challenges? Conquer them with a Swiss Army knife. Take the most proper and simple tool that you can adopt to deal with your situation. Now back to our story. How did the Japanese finally figure out the fresh fish problem? Sharks! You might think the same. Sharks were caught and put into the tanks with other fishes. Dont sharks eat fish? Well, they do eat a few fish, but they did also keep more fish active and alert (警觉的). The fish stay fresh because they are challenged. Now, try to keep yourself fresh by finding your own shark to offer yourself a challenge in your own business and career. 61.

Its no longer good enough to be a qualified applicant, so job clubs can be of much help. What is a Job Club? Job connection clubs are small groups of people across America who meet regularly to talk about job searching and career. These clubs support the success of all members. Looking for work chances is made easier when youre not alone. Job clubs are rooted in the belief that each member has something valuable to contribute and that everyone will benefit from the advice and encouragement. Why start or join a job club? Job searching can possibly be a lonely and discouraging process, but it doesnt have to be that way. Becoming part of a local job club can offer valuable help. It may also bring a strong sense of confidence that gets you going in the right direction. When you know that your fellow members expect to hear regularly about your progress, youre more likely to have a positive attitude towards the club meeting. To support your success, the club will provide practical suggestions, including specific (特定的) discussion topics to get you started and keep you encouraged along the way of overcoming the difficulties in a job hunt. What are the topics of a job club? While the form of club activities may be the same, the varied topics of discussion mean that no two meetings are exactly alike. Youll deal with a number of matters where to find proper job directions and how to get your calls returned; preparing for interviews; effectively applying for the right opportunities to satisfy your desire; facing rejections bravely and turning failure into success. Each member will update the group on his or her progress, and youll end each meeting with a suggestion from each member to carry out specific tasks during the week that follows. Theres no shortage of topics to talk about. 66.The reason to start the job clubs is that they can _.
