Saying Hello to Anita Fodrasz

Short Cut to Success
  


Independence in life is one of the greatest treasures that exists, and, that’s what Anita Fodrasz had in mind when she set out in life on the path of a hairdresser.

At the beginning, of course, she had to comply with the wishes and rules of the bosses she worked for. But then, one bright day and right out of the blue her future appeared! It was not high up in the sky as expected, but just below ground in a disused cellar of the high-rise socialist block which was home.

In front of her eyes was her life as she wanted. Her vision of becoming her own number one was beginning to put on a style of its own. For there, in front of her own two eyes, and amongst the neglect and the dust and the rubble was her future saloon.

And so it came to be. With family and friends joining in, this once home to old boxes and unwanted junk became Anita's saloon! It took hours of hard work with brushes and paint and rolled up sleeves, but the effort was worth every minute! Within just a very short period of time, the people of Veszprem in Hungary were beating a path to her door. Anita was good, and word had gone round!
But, her customers weren’t the only ones with smiles on their faces! With her own apartment just five floors above, Anita had plenty of time for her young son of eight. And, her husband, too, was not to miss out on his comforts! His favourite meals were never to be more than just a short wait away! In a word, and putting it simply, everyone was happy!


And that’s the key to it all. Happiness comes with the getting of the things that one wants most of all. And, Anita with her scissors and skills is able to give people the most important thing of all, and that is good looks and beauty. And, it’s all thanks to her once-upon-a-time dream of becoming a cut above the rest, and it all came true at the bottom and not at the top!
