= Somebody, Anybody, Everybody & Nobody =
A workshop participant submitted the following story:
Once upon a time there were 4 people named
'Everybody', 'Somebody', 'Anybody' and 'Nobody'.
There was a job to be done.
'Everybody' was asked to do it.
But 'Everybody' was sure that 'Somebody' would do it.
But, 'Nobody' did it.
'Somebody' was so angry about it because it was 'Everybodys' job.
And 'Nobody' realized that 'Everybody' wouldn’t do it.
It ended up that 'Everybody' blamed 'Somebody' and 'Nobody' did the job
'Anybody' could have done in the first place.
To this date these 4 people are still arguing why 'Nobody' did the job!!!
Dr Aznavour's take on the story:
"As a promoter of 'STAYINGUPBEAT' I believe people with reasonable abilities can be taught to do the following:
When 'Nobody' wants to assume responsibility, then 'Somebody' can be the motivator, developing abilities in 'Anybody' in order to have them shared by 'Everybody'.
So, let you and I become the locomotives to educate, motivate, energize and empower 'Everybody' so that 'Nobody' can complain to 'Anybody' about life being hopeless due to that 'Somebody'!
Achievers are doers. They look for projects.They get energized taking responsibilities. They stay young.
You and I are achievers."
