A step by step tool for top achievers

Step 2: Consideration
One day, a ten-year-old boy went to an ice cream shop, sat at a table and asked the
waitress, "How much is an ice-cream cone?" She said, "seventy-five cents." The boy
started counting the coins he had in his hand. Then he asked how much a small cup of
ice-cream was. The waitress impatiently replied, "sixty five cents." The boy said, "I will
have the small ice-cream cup." He had his ice-cream, paid the bill and left. When the
waitress came to pick up the empty plate, she was touched. Underneath were ten one-
cent coins as tip. The little boy had consideration for the waitress before he ordered his
ice-crearn. He showed sensitivity and caring. He thought of others before himself.
If we all thought like the little boy, we would have a great place to live. Show
consideration, courtesy, and politeness. Thoughtfulness shows a caring attitude.
