Howard Schultz

[Fekhan]

Well, the title can be confused a bit, but in a simple way I mean if there is the possibility of being successful by reading a sentence with a very good reflection, for example there are the Howard Schultz phrases, which refer specifically to success and entrepreneurship, then if a common person sees these propositions, will it be possible for a motivation to occur ? I think so, what about you?

So, do you have a personal anecdote in your own experience to share with us how a Starbucks cup or a Chinese fortune cookie changed your life ?

What the fekhan are you talking about? Is this a Starbucks moment or a political ad? Perhaps before you start this kind of thing, you should read the rules, say hello and tell us a little something about yourself. Hint. This is a guitar forum dedicated to Larrivée guitars and those who love and play them.

Odd thread but it made me think of Starbucks and how I first went there around twenty years ago (has it really been that long?). It was a new world for me and I thought the drinks were great.  I don't know if SBUX changed or if I did, but I stopped getting a good drink there a long time ago and don't go anymore. I save a ton of money by enjoying old-school black coffee at home made the way I like it.  I discovered the world of English tea in recent years and it's great stuff too.  I tend to feel better when drinking tea than coffee.  Coffee seems harder on a body.

Black coffee is the elixir of life. I'm having a cup (or two or three) right now. Don't mind a cuppa tea once in a while. Starbucks is way too expensive for what you get. In Canada, no one can really compete with Tim Hortons, however. Nearby Thunder Bay with slightly over 100,000 people has 15 locations and they're all busy always. They build a new one and it's like it comes with its own clientele. There's also seven Starbucks and eleven Robin's Donuts. I guess we love our coffee and the whole town is wide awake!
