In a beautiful village, there was a family of four. They moved to the city to start a business.
With their little savings and financial help from their close circle, they opened a shop.
On the first day of opening the shop, there were no customers. And in the first week, there were no customers. Even after a month, there were no customers.
During these difficult times, the family didn’t lose hope.
Every day the man woke up early and got ready to open the shop. His wife prepared food for him. In the night, he closed his shop late.
They were having only one meal per day. But they never give up.
After close to 2 months, they had their first customer. He treated his customer well and gave quality products.
With quality service to the first customer and through word of mouth, he started receiving more customers to his shop. And it was no looking back for him after his first customer.
Now, it’s been 20 years since he started. His business has grown big and now has multiple branches across the city. His son and daughter also started managing his business.
Still, every day the man wakes up early, the lady now cooks for both her children and her husband. They open their shop early and close their shop late. They were patient and never gave up.
Moral of the story:
Time can test our patience though we should never let ourselves down.
Develop the never-give-up attitude and build patience to get success.
