Success does not happen in isolation
Posted byThere was a farmer who grew superior quality, award-winning corn in his farm. Each year, he entered his corn in the state fair where it won honors. & Prizes.
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something interesting about how he grew his corn. The reporter discovered that the farmer shared his seed corn with his friends & farmers...."How can you afford to share your best seed corn with others farmers when they are entering corn in competition with yours each year?" The
reporter asked. "Why sir,
The farmer replied, "Didn't you know? The wind picks up pollen grains from the ripening corn and swirls it from field to field. If my friends & farmers grow inferior, sub-standard & poor quality corn, cross-pollination will steadily degrade the quality of my corn. If I have to grow good corn, I must help my farmers to grow good corns."
The farmer gave a superb insight into the connectedness of life. His corn cannot improve unless his friends & farmers corn also improves.
So it is in the other dimensions and areas of life!
Those who choose to be in harmony must help their colleagues & friends to be at peace. Those who choose to live well must help others live well. The value of a life is measured by the lives it touches...
Success does not happen in isolation; it is most often a participatory and collective process. So share the good practices, ideas and new knowledge with your family, friends, colleagues ,team members & all.
As they say: "Success breeds Success."
