#DUCK_OR_EAGLE? You decide.
I was at the airport when a taxi driver approached me.
The first thing I noticed in the cab was a phrase, I soon read:
Duck or Eagle?
You decide.
The second thing I noticed was a clean, shiny cab, the driver well dressed

white shirt and well pressed pants, with a tie.
The taxi driver got out, opened the door for me and said: I am John, your chauffeur
While I'm putting your luggage away, I'd like you to read on this card what my mission is
On the card was written:
⏬

John's Mission
To get my clients to their destination quickly, safely and economically, while providing a friendly environment.
I was impressed.
The interior of the cab was equally clean.
John asked me:
"Would you like some coffee?"
⏬

Joking with him I said:
"No, I'd rather have a juice.
He immediately replied:
"no problem. I have a thermos with regular juice and also diet juice, as well as water," he also told me:
"if you wish to read, I have today's newspaper and also some magazines."
⏬

As the race began John told me:
"These are the radio stations I have and this is the repertoire they play."
As if that wasn't enough, João even asked me if the temperature of the air conditioning was good.
Then he told me what was the best route to my destination and

if I wanted to talk to him or if he preferred that I not be interrupted.
I asked: Do you always serve your customers like this?
No, he replied.
Not always
Only in the last two years
My first few years as a taxi driver I spent most of my time complaining just like
⏬

the other taxi drivers. One day I listened to a doctor who was a specialist in personal development.
He wrote a book called :Who you are makes the difference
He said: If you get up in the morning expecting to have a lousy day, you certainly will.
Don't be a DUCK!
Be an eagle!
⏬

Ducks just make noise and complain, eagles soar above the pack
I was all the time making noise and complaining.
So I decided to change my attitudes and be an eagle.
I looked at the other cabs and drivers
The dirty cabs, the unfriendly drivers, and the dissatisfied customers
⏬

I decided to make some changes.
Since my customers responded well, I made a few more changes. In my first year as an eagle, I doubled my turnover. This year, I have already quadrupled it.

You are lucky you took my cab today. I am no longer at the cab stand.
⏬

My customers book through my cell phone or send me a message.
If I can't pick up, I get a trusted "Eagle" taxi driver friend to do the job."
John was different.
He offered a limousine service in a regular cab.
⏬

John, the taxi driver, decided to stop making noise & complaining like ducks do and started flying over the group like eagles do
It doesn't matter whether you work in an office, with maintenance, a teacher, a civil servant, a politician, an executive, an employee, a freelancer
⏬

or a taxi driver!
How do you behave?
Are you dedicated to making noise and complaining? Or are you elevating yourself above the others?
Remember: THE DECISION IS YOURS!

That key only opens from the inside!

AND YOU HAVE LESS AND LESS TIME TO CHANGE!⏬

2022 will be nothing new if we don't have new attitudes!
May we be better fathers, * better husbands better wives, better mothers, better children, better friends!
May we not repeat the mistakes of the past!
May we pray more, praise more, thank more!
⏬

May God Almighty give us the wisdom we need to be eagles, so that we can fly high and live in a better world of peace.

LET'S BE EAGLES 🦅 IN 2022

And may God shower His blessings upon us all and find whatever we want in life, know it when we see it and keep it forever 💯 🙏🏼

May all of my friends have a blessed 2022 and may all of them soar in the sky like an EAGLE
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
