Online Business With The Right Attitude

With the online business opportunity arena so big, one must understand that in these businesses, even if automated, people are still involved and need respect. Treat the people with the right attitude, even if they never join your business. The the ripple effect of you kindnesses will have a positive effect in the future, if not immediately.

The following poem about responsibility attitude and kindness is pertinent........

DROP A PEBLE IN THE WATER

Drop a pebble in the water:
Just a splash and it is gone;
But there's half-a-hundred ripples
Circling on and on and on,
Spreading from the center,
And there is no way of telling
Where the end is going to be.

Drop an unkind word, or careless:
In a minute you forget;
But there's little waves a-flowing,
And there's ripples circling yet,
And perhaps in some sad heart
A mighty wave of tears you've stirred,
And disturbed a life once happy
Ere you dropped that unkind word.

Drop a word of cheer and kindness;
Just a flash and it is gone;
But there's half-a-hundred ripples
Circling on and on and on,

Bearing hope and joy and comfort
On each splashing, dashing wave,
Till you wouldn't believe the volume
Of the one kind word you gave.
- James W. Foley
