This is a true story from the japanese embassy in us!!!
This is a true story from the japanese embassy in us a few years ago prime minister mori was given some basic english conversation training before he visits washington and meets president bill clinton... the instructor told mori "prime minister when you shake hand with president clinton please say 'how are you'. then mr. clinton should say" i m fine and you?" you should say 'me too'. afterwards we translators will do all the work for you." it looks quite simple but the truth is hen mori met clinton he mistakenly said "who are you?" instead of "how are you". mr. clinton was a bit shocked but still managed to react with humor: "well i m hilary s husband haha then mori replied "me too haha.." then there was a long silence in the meeting room.

Fish story - japanese way- good one
The japanese have always loved fresh fish. but the waters close to japan have not held many fish for decades. so to feed the japanese population fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever. the farther the fishermen went the longer it took to bring in the fish. if the return trip took more than a few days the fish were not fresh. the japanese did not like the taste. to solve this problem fishing companies installed freezers on their boats. they would catch the fish and freeze them at sea. freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer. however the japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen and they did not like frozen fish. the frozen fish brought a lower price. so fishing companies installed fish tanks. they would catch the fish and stuff them in the tanks fin to fin. after a little thrashing around the fish stopped moving. they were tired and dull but alive. unfortunately the japanese could still taste the difference. because the fish did not move for days they lost their freshfish taste. the japanese preferred the lively taste of fresh fish not sluggish fish. so how did japanese fishing companies solve this problem? how do they get freshtasting fish to japan? if you were consulting the fish industry what would you recommend? how japanese fish stay fresh: to keep the fish tasting fresh the japanese fishing companies still put the fish in the tanks. but now they add a small shark to each tank. the shark eats a few fish but most of the fish arrive in a very lively state. the fish are challenged. have you realized that some of us are also living in a pond but most of the time tired & dull so we need a shark in our life to keep us awake and moving? basically in our lives sharks are new challenges to keep us active and taste better... the more intelligent persistent and competent you are the more you enjoy a challenge. if your challenges are the correct size and if you are steadily conquering those challenges you are conqueror. you think of your challenges and get energized. you are excited to try new solutions.
