Cant still leave this earth; more teaching from problems; people whom you thought ready arent

Be better than before, than yesterday...

One project seem to be going south.   I worked so hard to turn this over to a protege.  But he could not produce result the full dp despite giving him all the support.  At a meeting I discovered that we are not in agreement with business, leadership and management principles.  

Now I had to meet with the principal and agree negotiate with the exit....  Am disappointed and saddened.  

Now I know better.  Better hands on with big deals.   The underlings cant be trusted yet.   

Continue thinking believing, and motivating others, self

Be better than before, than yesterday...

An individual I have been guiding motivating ran into problems (where to get his funding -  his supporters did not make true their commitments) and looked exhausted and helpless  But this post reminded of the great wealth that comes to him and what he has is rare opportunity.  But examining his resources, he has lots:

     1.  His receivables from a contract has not been forthcoming because he accepted the wrong

          computation of his billing, 

    2.  He has retention for collection;

    3.  Then found out that one of the partners has receivables still 10 years old, and we can discount                      future receivables.

Never ever2 quit, believing...

Dont stop believing

Soc media replete with Chinese shorts/reels on how to treat employees, inlaws, have nots properly

Chinese work culture

There a lots of reels/shorts on soc media about how Chinese treat in laws, employees, and abusive supervisors who mistreat their staff:   collect bribes for being employed, asks them to submi proposals and then take credit.   Then about parents:    driving away parents due to wifes insistence, or favoring  other children

Of course, they could be part of the silen warfare by the Chinese PLA vs the west to project that they are kind and good.  

But whose side are you on? 

I am on the side of right, fairness, and also kindness.

I would be fair and jsut rather than kind.  

Money can disappear, but the ability to create wealth remains forever

Be better than before, than yesterday...

It is a common story that just when the old man or woman is to die, the heirs quarrel as to who gets the lion share of the inheritance.   Quarrels arise.  If there is no quarrel, the heirs surely have taken up the MBA on how to squander and dissipate the wealth that took so hard for the parents to gather and grow.

So there was story of father who gave his eldest son one cow;   the other one, a hundred cows plus a dairy.  Of course the eldest was aghast on his one cow gift from his father.   So the father said you will see that I gave you a better inheritance ie how to build wealth.  Thus the eldest milked the cows, sold the milk ot neighbors saved the money, then bought more cows.  Eventually he bought more cows and eventually had a dairy.  The younger one of course simply enjoyed the wealth and eventually lost his money.  

So would you prefer the inheritance of experience and knowledge how to build wealth?
