I don’t know about you but I have always wondered why a guy who sits in an airconditioned office and doesn’t appear to be really working gets paid over 100x what the guy doing “real work” outside gets paid
The day I learned this a light bulb went off in my head.
In case you don’t know… here’s why that guy in the office gets paid so much. The answer is one word:
“Responsibility”
When everyone leaves at 5:00 PM he stays behind until 10:00 or 11:00 PM in the evening. If anything wrong at his factory or plant, then people would want to know from him, what went wrong.
They’re not going to ask the guy working outside.
Here is another thing. You can get people who do ‘real work’ on every street. However, if you’re looking for someone who wants to take responsibility for others, you’ll have to search far and wide.
The bigger your responsibility, the more you get paid. That is why if you want to make it in life, the first thing you have to do is to accept responsibility for your life.
That means, stop blaming others for what goes wrong in your life.
Here is what the great Napoleon Hill, author of “Think and grow Rich” said:
“Big pay and little responsibility are circumstances seldom found together.” Napoleon Hill
