The Shark and the Goldfish [EPUB ebook] 
Positive Ways to Thrive During Waves of Change

An illustrated business fable that gives you the faith, courage
and confidence to win in today’s tough economic climate
Fear and uncertainty are staples of daily life in today’s
struggling economy. As bad as things can be, economic downturns
also lead to new opportunities. It’s easy to worry, give up and let
fear paralyze you. However, you have more control than you think
you do and how you handle adversity is your choice-and the only
choice that matters. In fact, study history and you’ll find that a
lot of people and organizations made a name for themselves and grew
their businesses during recessions and downturns. These successful
people and organizations all shared similar characteristics and
took similar actions to thrive while others merely tried to
survive. You can do the same.
In The Shark and the Goldfish, Jon Gordon shares an
inspiring fable about Gordy, a pampered goldfish who gets swept out
to sea. Desperate for food, Gordy meets a kind shark who teaches
him the ultimate lesson-Goldfish wait to be fed. Sharks go find
food. Gordy also learns that the difference between a full and
empty stomach is our faith, beliefs and actions. In the face of
adversity and lean times, this is a business fable that reinforces
a proven truth: You can’t control the events in your life. But you
can control how you respond and in turn this determines the
outcome.
