Some days ago I was talking to a friend of mine. This person is in his sixties and he was telling me how he has spent most of his life working in his business. “I earned a ton of money, the more I was earning the more greedy I was becoming” “more, more and more” he kept on saying. He was not yet satisfied with his results and neither was he satisfied with any of his relationships be it with family, friends or his partner. Then something happened in his life and this personal experience was eye opening for him. Nowadays, he is retired but he is still involved in some business ventures and he is one of the top economic consultants. He is very admired and respected. You see, it makes no difference whether a person had been good or bad in the past. Your situation can always be improved upon and it is the small act of refining something that is already good that can truly make it great. Here is a test. In the next 30 days act towards the world with everything and everyone with whom you come in contact with, with the attitude which represents the kind of results you want to achieve. If you want others to treat you with admiration and respect, you must treat others with admiration and respect first.
