important management lessons i learnt from a
500 Naira note.
1. It happened some time ago but .
I was in an audience listening to a motivational
speaker.
The speaker got out his wallet & pulled out a 500
Naira note. Holding it up, he asked, "Who wants
this 500 naira note?"
Lots of hands went up. Including mine. A slow
chorus began to build as people began to shout
"Me!" "Me!" I began to
wonder who the lucky one would be who the
speaker would choose. And I also secretly
wondered (and I am sure others did too ) why he
would simply give away 500 naira. Even as the
shouts of "I want it" grew louder, I noticed a young
woman running down the aisle. She ran up onto
the stage, went up to the speaker, and grabbed the
five 500 naira note from his hand. "Well done,
young lady," said the speaker into the microphone.
The
speaker simply say "Most of us just sit and wait
for good things to happen. That's of no use.
You've got to make things happen. Make a move"
'Simply thinking about doing something is of no
use and not gud enough'. Our lives are like that.
We all see opportunities around us. We all want
the good things. But the problem is we don't take
action.
We all want the 500 naira notes on offer. But we
don't make the move. We look at it longingly. Get
up, and do something about it. Don't worry about
what other people might think.
Take action.
2. later, the speaker got another 500 naira note
and held it up for all to see, I thought I knew
what's up. But he just
asked a simple question. "How much is this
worth?" "Five Hundred naira!" the crowd yelled in
unison. "Right," said the speaker. He then took the
note and
crumpled it into a ball and asked "How much is it
worth now?"
"Five Hundred naira!" screamed the audience. He
then threw the note on the ground, stamped all
over it
and picked up the note and asked one more time:
"And how much is it worth now?" "Five Hundred
naira!" was the response. "I want you to remember
this," said the speaker. "Just because someone
crumples it, or stamps on it, the value of the note
does not diminish. We should all be like the 500
naira note..
In our lives, there will be times when we feel
crushed, stamped over, beaten. But never let your
self-worth
diminish. Just because someone chooses to crush
you -- that doesn't change your worth one bit!
Don't allow your self-worth to diminish because
someone says something nasty -- or does
something dirty -- to you."
Never let your self-worth diminish
