Motivating Story The Coffee Cup

Motivating Story The Coffee Cup and Students

This is a highly inspiring moral story about a professor who proved to his old college students how they still are not professionals despite being professionals in life.

One day, a retired professor called all his old college students home. When they were all seated, the professor poured coffee from a kettle in to some coffee cups kept on a tray, all of which were different in colour and shape.

The professor took the coffee tray around to the students and smiled at each student lifting the coffee off the tray. Only one cup of coffee was left in the tray.

The professor lifted this dull looking and unattractive cup of coffee. One student asked, “Professor, why did you give coffee to us all in different colour and shaped cups?”

The professor replied, ”Gentlemen, you all are out of college and are professionals today. But one human factor still remains in you that can pull you down.”

The students eagerly asked, “And what is that, Professor?”

The professor answered, “You all saw me pour the coffee into the cups from the same kettle. It was the coffee that all of you wanted.

Yet you all went for the best cup in the tray as I brought the tray to each of you in turn.”

Moral of this Motivating and Inspiriational story

“Life is Coffee and World is the Cup. It is Coffee that matters. Enjoy the Coffee.”
