Genie story : HR executive & his wife from California were celebrating 10 th wedding anniversary in Hawaii. Walking along beach on Maui, spotted an unusual looking bottle that had washed up on shore. Opened it & out popped genie who said, “You know the deal—I’ll grant you 3 wishes.” Being a smart HR person & a well-trained husband, the HR person turned to his wife to ask what 3 wishes they should make. She said to husband “let’s ask for his & her Mercedes”. Husband repeated wish to genie who said “wish #1 is granted”. Wife then said to husband “let’s ask for our mortgage to be paid off”. Husband repeated wish to genie who said “wish #2 is granted”. Wife then said to husband, “I’ve loved it here in Hawaii & would love to come back, but you know how I hate to fly. Let’s ask for a bridge between California & Hawaii.” Husband repeated it to genie who said “I’m sorry but wish #3 is denied as that’s too difficult even for me.” Husband quickly then asked genie to make him a highly respected, highly valued member of his company’s Executive Team. To which the genie replied, “how many lanes would you like that bridge to have.” Message : Too many of us are waiting for a genie to make this desire come to pass, when it’s us to us to make it happen. Today we’ll talk about how to do so. Please ask questions/make comments as we go along.
