Which tyre was it?
At a university the two students received A’s in their Math all through the semester.
But on the night before the final exam, they partied and could not reach the exam centre in time. Their excuse to the teacher was that they had a flat tyre and requested for a make up test.
The teacher agreed and wrote a test and sent them to two separate rooms to complete the test. The first question was worth 5 marks and 2nd question was 95 marks – which read “ which tyre was it?”
How likely will they pass this test?

Negotiation is an important life skill
We negotiate most of our waking hours. We negotiate with our team members, colleagues, bosses and vendors at work, with our kids, spouse and parents at home. We negotiate during buying or selling of an asset e.g. house, car and also conflict resolution and during salary negotiations. Negotiation is an important life skill and it contributes to our success.
If we do not negotiate well or don’t negotiate at all then there is a big chance that we are going to leave money on the table, which could have been ours. We often don’t negotiate because we feel it is inappropriate or feel uncomfortable and fear it.
“You don't get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate.” Chester Karrass
