Debbie Fields is at a party with her husband, Randy Fields, a well-known economist. The guests flatter Randy, eager to hear his economic forecast. But when the same guests discover that Debbie is a housewife, they suddenly remember conversations they desperately need to have on the other side of the room. They treat Debbie like an absolute zero.

Finally, the host turns to Debbie with questions about her life and future plans. She tries hard, but cannot come up with any definite answers. Finally, he asks in an annoyed tone, "What do you intend to do with your life？"

"I'm mostly trying to get orientated."

"The word should be oriented(寻找方向).Learn to use the English language!"

Debbie feels hurt. She decides not to live in anyone else's shadow. She will find something of her own to do. But what？ What Debbie had always loved doing was making chocolate chip cookies. She had experimented with recipes(配方) since she was 13 years old-adding more butter, less flour, more and different kinds of chocolate until she hit upon an ideal combination, Now, she has this idea. She will open up a little store and sell her cookies.

"Bad idea,"Randy's business friends say, their mouths full of cookies."It'll never work."They shake their heads as they lick the last bits of chocolate from their fingers. "Forget it." Randy feels the same way. So do the loan officers she approaches for financing. But she sets her heart on her cookie business.

At 9:00 a.m. on August 18,1977,Debbie opened her cookie shop.But nobody came to buy her cookies.By noon she was desperate. She loaded up a tray and began walking around the street where her shop was located, trying to give away cookies.It worked. Once people tried the cookies, they loved them and came back to the shop for more. By the end of the day, she had sold $50 worth. On day two, she took in $75.The rest is cookie history.

Today, with over 600 stores and 1,000 employees, "Mrs.Fields Cookies" has sales in the multi-millions.A mother of five, Debbie continues to share her winning philosophy with businessmen around the world.
