The "KFC" Story

There was an old man whose age was 65. He just had $100 from the social security fund and an old car. But he had a dream. He had a dream of selling his mother's recipe of chicken.

With this dream in his eye, $100 in his pocket, he set out in his old car to sell this recipe to people who would care to buy. He knocked on doors every day but to no avail.

Everyday would end in a BIG disappointment. But he would never give up.

Next day, again he would start afresh. He would have knocked on at least thousand doors before he got his first order.

Then the orders started trickling in and then orders started flooding in.

Slowly the recipe became the talk of the town, then the country and then the whole world.

Today the same recipe is being used all over the world in a chain of restaurants known as "KFC" and the man was none other than Colonel Sanders.

(Cue: We should not lose heart when we attempt and fail; instead we should start afresh.)
