There was a fisherman was sitting near the seashore, under the shadow of a tree. Suddenly a rich businessman passing by approached him and inquired as to why he was sitting under a tree and not working. To this, the poor fisherman replied that he had caught enough fish for the day.
Hearing this, the rich man got angry and said: Why don’t you catch more fish instead of sitting in the shadow wasting your time?
Fisherman asked: What would I do by catching more fish?
Businessman: You could catch more fish, sell them, earn more money, and buy a bigger boat.
Fisherman: What would I do then?
Businessman: You could go fishing in deep waters and catch even more fish and earn even more money.
Fisherman: What would I do then?
Businessman: You could buy many boats and employ many people to work for you and earn even more money.
Fisherman: What would I do then?
Businessman: You could become a rich businessman like me.
Fisherman: What would I do then?
Businessman: You could then enjoy your life peacefully.
Fisherman: What do you think I’m doing right now?
