Your Sight May Be Perfect But...Hows your vision?

Helen Keller said, "The greatest tragedy in life is people who have sight but
no vision." How's your vision?
A Hollywood producer scrawled a curt rejection note on a manuscript that
became "Gone With The Wind." He had no vision for what that book could become.
Henry Ford's largest original investor sold all his stock in 1906. What could
have happened had he shared Ford's vision for his company?
Roebuck sold out to Sears for $25,000 in 1895. Today, Sears may sell $25,000
worth of goods in sixteen seconds.
How's your vision? Do you see what needs to be seen?
Orville and Wilbur Wright felt excited. On December 17, 1903, they had
finally succeeded in keeping their homemade airplane in the air for 59
seconds. Immediately, they rushed a telegram to their sister in Dayton, Ohio,
telling of this great accomplishment. The telegram read, "First sustained
flight today fifty-nine seconds. Hope to be home by Christmas."
Upon receiving the news of the successful flight, their sister was so excited
that she rushed to the newspaper office and gave the telegram to the editor.
The next morning the newspaper headed the story: "Popular Local Bicycle
Merchants To Be Home For Holidays."
Can you see the real story? Are you looking for the hidden potential lurking
behind every situation? Do you recognize those obscure opportunities cleverly
disguised as glaring problems?
Your sight may be perfect, but how's your vision?
