The beginning of the long series of thoughts, on how to bring down the gap between the haves and the have not's. Let's begin with a question, what can be done to bring this change? The rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. We blaming or complaining the government for this situation is not the solution. It is an end in itself.
"Don't complain because you don't have..... Enjoy what you've got." -H. Stanley Judd. Complaining is the absolute worst possible thing you could do for your health and wealth. Why is it so? The universal law states that, "What you focus your energy on expands." When you are complaining, what you are focusing and placing your energy on, what's right with your life or what's wrong with it? You are obviously focusing on what's wrong with your life, and since what you focus or put your energy on expands, you will keep getting more of what's wrong.
So what can we do? Leave off complaining and think about how you are responsible for the situation that you are in. Once you become aware that you are responsible for whatever is happening in your life, you also get a solution of how to get out of it. By becoming responsible we get twin advantages, we become aware and also get a solution for our challenges.
The rich class is always willing to pay any price for quality goods and services. This is an opportunity to bring down the gap. Create value in whatever you do for your survival. See that you are world class in your vocation. Once you become supreme you can command the price you want for your services. Then the grumble about others comes down as you area elevating yourself into the higher levels of the society.
When I say this to people around, they are puzzled as to what value they can create in their vocation that can command higher returns. Our lives have evolved into such mediocre thoughts and actions that we have totally forgotten what the real niche in our work is and what value it commands?
Let’s take for example a truck driver. He would usually ask as what value he can create to get paid richly for his services. One day as we were driving down the state highway. We found many Lorries struggling to navigate their way into the highway with huge loads in them. Then we realized the agony these drivers are undergoing. They do not have the luxury of air conditioners that most of the cars today have. They mostly drive between the pollution filled atmospheres on the roads with minimum facilities in their automotive. They have families too, which they get very less chance to be with, as their work demands being out most of the time. But they get paid pittance for the services they render and sacrifices that he does. How they can command better remunerations?
Instead of being just another truck driver, a person who seriously wants to have a better life can aim to be a master in his trade. Be an excellent driver, maintain his schedule and perform at his best. Not being selfish about his employer but rather being selfish about his own performance. Keep the vehicle he drives absolutely in good condition, which will give him a far better chance to reach in time or even better his own performance time and again. Be mindful about his existence on the roads and see that he gives other road users a pleasant driving experience. This will help his conscious thought process to evolve to excellence. When the mind gets to know the excellence it has gone into, it begins to attract what it needs. The best remuneration.
By getting to his excellence, on his own he begins to get the attention of both his employers and the competitors. He becomes a sort after driver in the community. This is his transformation stage; he will begin to command better salaries for his services. As he gets going with the same mindset, he becomes the super best and gets himself to command the best payment in the industry. Isn’t this the fair choice and most of us want to be with? I just took an example of a truck driver here. Like this any vocation where anyone is he or she can create abundant value addition which will in turn give them better standards of living.
More of these thoughts to continue on a regular basis, it would be nice if readers also join together in giving their comments and opinions. The work which we have began here is a long process, if all of you join hands, we can together work to bring amazing change in the economy and the standard of living to our fellow human beings. When we see a happy world around us, we get more confidence in ourselves to get more of the same happiness in our lives.
I believe each and every person who reads this article will help to contribute a little of his time and energy in not only growing to excellence himself, but to bring a conscious awareness around the world. Let’s begin the journey to evolve ourselves into greatness.
