13.A millionaire took some of his upper-class friends yachting(乘游艇).They passed a deserted island where a man with a long beard and worn clothes stood,waving his arms and screaming in their direction."Who is that?"asked a friend."I don't know,"said the host,"but every time we sail by he goes crazy."That may be an exception to a universal rule,which is that most people are happy to help if they cam But there is another universal principle-unless you are stranded on a deserted island,you are probably unwilling to ask for help,especially from a stranger.Thankfully,most of the time,we are not coping with a"mayday"emergency.
I recently learned that the word"mayday"has nothing to do with the month of May.Instead,it comes from the French word"m'aidez",which means"help me".But it is used only as a last choice.The plane is nose-drving.The ship is badly wounded."Mayday!Mayday!Mayday!"a voice screams over the radio.If help doesn't arrive quickly,all will be lost.
In truth,most people do not easily ask for the help they need.They wait until they are hopelessly lost or a simple job has become a nightmare before they seek help.And it is also true that help is not usually too hard to get.But we have to ASK for it.
A businessman,Brian Tracy,puts it well,"Ask for what you want.Ask for help,ask for input,ask for advice and ask for ideas-never be afraid to ask.You don't always get what you ask for,but you never get what you don't ask for."
Do you need help?It may be easier to get than you think.Just ask for it.
