A landscape gardener ran a business that had been in the family generations. The staff was happy, and customers loved to visit the store
The owner always wore a big lapel badge, saying Business Is Great!
The business was generally great, although it went through tough times like any other. What never changed however was the owner’s attitude.
The Business Is Great! badge always tended to start a conversation, which typically involved the owner talking about lots of positive aspects of business and work, for example:
· the pleasure of meeting and talking with different people every day
· the great feeling when you finish a job and do it to the best of your capabilities
And so the list went on. And no matter how miserable a person was, they’d usually end up feeling a lot happier after just a couple of minutes listening to all this infectious enthusiasm and positivity. .
