The person hindering your growth
One day all the employees reached the office, and they
saw a big advice on the door, on which it was written:“Yesterday the person who
has been hindering your growth in this company, passed away. We invite you to
join the funeral”.
In the beginning, they all felt sad for the death of
one of their colleagues. But after a while they started getting curious to know
who that man was who hindered the growth of his colleagues and the company
itself.
The excitement was such that the security agents were
ordered to control the crowd in the room. The more the people reached the
coffin, the more excitement heated up.
Everyone thought:”Who is this guy who was hindering my
progress? Well, at least he died!”
One by one, the thrilled employees got closer to the
coffin. When they looked inside it they suddenly became speechless. They stood
nearby the coffin, shocked in silence, as if someone had touched the deepest
part of their soul.
There was a mirror inside the coffin: everyone who looked
inside it could see themselves. There was a sign next to the mirror that said:”There
is only one person who is capable to set limits to your growth: it is YOU.”
Our life does not change when our boss changes, when
our teachers change, when our friends change. Our life changes when WE change
and realise that we are the only one responsible for our life.
