The Difference Between Focus on Problems and Focus on Solutions:

When NASA began the launch of astronauts into space, they found out that the pens wouldn't work at zero gravity. (Ink won't flow down to the writing surface). In order to solve this problem, they hired Andersen Consulting (Accenture today). It took them one decade and 12 million dollars. They developed a pen that worked at zero gravity, upside down, under water, in practically any surface including crystal and in a temperature range from below freezing to over 300 degrees C.


However, The Russians used a pencil...

1. Tests have shown that women rate 3% higher in general intelligence than men although their brain size is smaller. Most women act dumb to make their mates look good.
2. Women are walking radar detectors, that is why men have difficulty lying to women. Their brains have the ability to integrate and decipher verbal, visual and other signals of body language.
3. When men flirt, they will lower their pitch of voice. Women will raise theirs.
4. Women talk and think aloud while men do them silently. As a result, men think women talk too much and are nags.
5. Women talk about their problems as a way of relieving stress. She wants to be heard, not fixed being offered advice and solutions.
6. Speech and words are not a specific brain skill for men. They find it hard to express themselves. That's why they often choose greeting cards with plenty of words inside. That way, there's less space for them to write.
7. Women leave men, not because they are unhappy with what he can provide, but because they are emotionally unfulfilled.
8. Women uses an average of 20,000 communication words, sounds, and gestures a day. Men only use about 7,000.
9. So if a woman is talking to you a lot, she likes you. But if she's not talking, you're in trouble. 11. Men are more thick-skined than women. Literally. Which explains why women have more wrinkles than men. Boys lose their sensitivity to touch by the time they reach puberty. So where does all that sensitivity go? It all goes to just one area.
10. If a woman is unhappy in her relationship, she can't concentrate on her work. If a man is unhappy at work, he can't focus on his relationship.
11. Men can only do one thing at a time. When they stop their car to read a street directory, they have to turn down the radio. Women's brains are configured for multi- tasking performance. They can talk on the phone, watch the TV and cook at the same time.
12. Most men get a brain hemorrhage after 20 minutes of clothes shopping.
13. 15% to 20% of men have feminised brains. About 10% of women have masculinised brains. So there are more gays than lesbians in the world.

on the same frequency

This the last but most important part of the test.
From how I ended the story... a tornado approaches...
What are you going do? There are only 3 options:
(i) run and hide in the box?
(ii) run and hide under the bridge?
(iii) run to the horse, ride on and gallop away?

What will you choose?
Now, the above is signified by these things:
tornado - problems in your life
box - you
bridge - your friends
horse - your partner

(i) So if you choose the box, you keep your problems
to yourself whenever you are met with problems.
(ii) or if you choose the bridge, you will go to your
friends whenever y! ou are m et problems.
(iii) or lastly if you choose the horse, you seek your
partner whenever your partner whenever you are met
with problems.

So if you think this is worth to take some time to
send it to your friends, then you are a friend indeed.

Or you think it is kind of true, you can also send it
to your friends cause you are true too.
