    五星级擦鞋匠

    在日本东京霞关街附近,有一个名叫凯比特东急的四星级饭店。一些演艺界的明星一到东京非“凯比特东急”不住。一向苛刻挑剔的明星对此情有独钟的原因非常简单:享受一下该饭店“定点”的擦鞋匠源太郎的“五星级服务”。
      源太郎的擦鞋方法别具一格:不用鞋刷,而用木制棉布绕在食指和中指上代替,鞋油也自行调配。那些早已失去光泽的旧皮鞋,经他独具匠心的擦拭,无不焕然一新,光可鉴人。而且光泽持久,可保持一周以上。更绝的是,凭着高深的职业素养,源太郎与人擦肩而过时都能知道对方穿的是何种皮鞋。从鞋的磨损部位和程度,他可以说出这个人的健康状况和生活习惯。
      炉火纯青的技术、一丝不苟的敬业精神和非同凡响的效果,为源太郎赢得了众多顾客。源太郎曾是一名失业工人,从一个美国军官那里学会了擦皮鞋。从此,只要听说哪里有好的擦鞋匠,他就千方百计地赶去请教,虚心学习。日子一天一天地过去了。源太郎的名声越来越响,最终成为“凯比特东急”饭店的一块金字招牌———“五星级擦鞋匠”。
      我们有许多人,也有过类似的际遇。和源太郎当年的命运一样,我们有充沛的体力和激情,有不愿屈从命运做一番事业的打算,也不惧吃苦,所不同的是,我们不甘心将擦鞋这类难称大雅的职业当成终身目标。日子在选择中悄悄流走,当我们恍然悟醒时,一切都来不及了。
      早早选定一个目标,不必苛求目标是否宏伟,最重要的一点是———它是否适合你。然后,朝着目标,不断地努力,努力!相信有那么一天,我们也能成为一名“五星级擦鞋匠”。
