Hi all,
I have to make a presentation on Goal Setting. I have prepared the presentation, and I need some good jokes or short stories (humorous) to make my presentation effective. Could you please help me with the same? I need relevant jokes or stories.
It can be like - If you will not set a goal, then... or any other.

Hi,
I just came across this story, quite an old one. Check if it would be apt.
Chuan and Jing joined a wholesale company together just after graduation. Both worked very hard. After several years, the boss promoted Jing to sales executive but Chuan remained a sales rep. One day, Chuan could not take it anymore, tendered resignation to the boss, and complained that the boss did not value hard-working staff but only promoted those who flattered him.
The boss knew that Chuan worked very hard for years, but in order to help Chuan realize the difference between him and Jing, the boss asked Chuan to do the following:
Go and find out anyone selling watermelon in the market?
Chuan returned and said yes.
The boss asked how much per kg?
Chuan went back to the market to ask and returned to inform the boss it was $12 per kg.
The boss told Chuan, "I will ask Jing the same question."
Jing went, returned, and said, "Boss, only one person is selling watermelon. $12 per kg, $100 for 10 kg, and he has an inventory of 340 melons. On the table, there are 58 melons, each weighing about 15 kg, bought from the South two days ago, they are fresh and red, good quality."
Chuan was very impressed and realized the difference between himself and Jing. He decided not to resign but to learn from Jing.
It would be appreciable if you could share the PPT.
Thanks,
