The way I See It

In my previous post, I expressed that I am sad to see hundreds of Starbucks store closing. For the past few month, I can see that Starbucks is making many changes in their effort to retain customers. One of the changes that I like is the free ATT wifi....and here I am in Starbucks at South U...updating my blog...

Also, I am glad that they are using the old cups again...here is an interesting quote on my cup of peppermint mocha:

The Way I See It #293

The way I see it
Isn't necessarily
The way you see it
Or the way it is
Or ought to be
What's more important
Is that we're all
Looking for It
And a way to see it

--Desi Di Nardo


Ohya, I got myself a mug too...gonna post the pic later :)

Listening

In one of our meetings, all but one person did not understand what the major problem is, let alone how we try to resolve it.

The thing is: He WASN'T LISTENING!!!

Perhaps, I should get him a coffee in the old Starbucks cup with this quote printed on it:


The Way I See It #280

You can learn a lot more from listening than you can from talking. Find someone with whom you don't agree in the slightest and ask them to explain themselves at length. Then take a seat, shut your mouth, and don't argue back. It's physically impossible to listen with your mouth open.
