The Japanese have always loved fresh fish. But the waters close to Japan
have not held many fish for decades. So to feed the Japanese population,
fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever. The farther the
fishermen went, the longer it took to bring in the fish. If the return trip
took more than a few days, the fish were not fresh. The Japanese did not
like the taste.
To solve this problem, fishing companies installed freezers on their boats.
They would catch the fish and freeze them at sea. Freezers allowed the boats
to go farther and stay longer. However, the Japanese could taste the
difference between fresh and frozen and they did not like frozen fish.
The frozen fish brought a lower price. So fishing companies installed fish
tanks. They would catch the fish and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin.
After a little thrashing around, the fish stopped moving. They were tired
and dull, but alive. Unfortunately, the Japanese could still taste the
difference. Because the fish did not move for days, they lost their
fresh-fish taste. The Japanese preferred the lively taste of fresh fish, not
sluggish fish.
So how did Japanese fishing companies solve this problem? How do they get
fresh-tasting fish to Japan?
To keep the fish tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing companies still put the
fish in the tanks. But now they add a small* shark* to each tank. The shark
eats a few fish, but most of the fish arrive in a very lively state. The
fish are challenged.
*Moral :*
Have you realized that some of us are also living in a pond but most of
the time tired & dull, so we need a Shark in our life to keep us awake and
moving? Basically in our lives Sharks are new challenges to keep us active
and taste better...
The more intelligent, persistent and competent you are, the more you enjoy a
challenge. If your challenges are the correct size, and if you are steadily
conquering those challenges, you are Conqueror. You think of your challenges
and get energized. You are excited to try new solutions.
