Perspective

had a crash with my boss recently. trying my best to explain my situation, yet my boss eventually stormed out of my room. wondering whether did he really listening to my explanation or simply hearing. why he can't listen to understand the situation? sound familar, this is what i called "mindset".

everyone of us have a mindset. but some are more receptive to others' ideas/suggestions. while others, are not. person with terribly mindset have some kind of mental block. they view things/situations from their own perspective. they delibrately ignore to accept views from another perspective. In fact, in many times, situation will not be that bad if we view from a positive perspective. Here goes an interesting example:

a rich man trying to teach his son to realise how rich he is by bringing him to stay one night at a poor attap farm house. So he asked his son about the stay. The son replied:
we have 1 dog but they have 4 dogs
we have a swimming pool but they have a river of their own
we have garden but they have the whole grass field all to them
we see a sky but they have stars and sky

is it amazing, an extreme perspective from his father...
