一个商人欠了别人很多钱且无力偿还。他坐在公园的长椅上,思考挽救公司的办法。
突然,一位老人出现在他面前。听完他的问题之后,老人开了一张支票,说:“把钱拿着。一年后的今天在这见我,那个时候再把钱还给我。”说完,老人转身离开,和他来的时候一样快。
这个商人看见手里有一张有着世界首富洛克菲勒签字的五十万美金的支票。这笔钱足够他挽救生意了。但是,他决定把支票放进保险箱里,因为他觉得,知道自己拥有五十万让他有力量自己解决生意问题。
带着这样的信心和努力工作,他再次赚了钱。一年后,他带着那张支票回到了那个公园,看见了那位老人。正当他要感谢老人时,一个护士跑过来,大声说道:“太好了,终于抓到他了!他总是从疗养院跑出来,到处跟人说他是洛克菲勒。”说完,护士就扶着老人离开了。
突然,这个商人意识到他的人生转折跟这笔钱的真假并没有关系。是他重新建立的自信给了他成功的力量。
