There are basically two ways to be the best. You either rise
above others or you bring them below your level. Whichever way you get to be “on
top”. You know in at the end of most race you hear the past record and the new
set record and sometimes it’s done by the same person. That is a perfect
example of winning by rising above others. Some people have fully mastered the
art of increasing their heights by standing on the shoulders of others. Well I don’t
criticise that at all, that is if it is done the right way, I mean if you are
going to be standing tall on my shoulder I should as well be able to gain a lot
from whatever you see up there. It’s a good thing to stand out but doing it by
bringing people down to your level is quite easy but distasteful and most often
never stands the test of time because a man with one eye can be king in the
land of the blind only as long as he remains the only man with one eye. If I have
a rumpled shirt on, there are two ways to correct it; stand next to a mechanic
guy who has a dirty and rumpled shirt on or take the long road and do some
ironing.
Do not let anyone bring you below their level in other to
elevate themselves.
That's the truth of reality, not evaryone gets to be known or celebrated. But I know that those who stays at the background of those lives that have succeded are surely appreciated and recognized later.
ReplyDeletethat's the way it's supposed 2 b.....but in 2day's world we see d opposite...in law courts ou hear plenty employees who'v taken dr employers 2 court over this kind of issues....using my idea without referencing or paying me..........
ReplyDeleteyes bro its soo tru...my uncle sued his publisher for selling his yet 2 b published book in another country and according 2 him one of his lecturers in school who worked as an enginner had to leave bcos his boss kept getting all d credit for his work and ideas and did not mention him once or even appreciate him.......pple really use others as ladders to stand tall but let us knw that if that ladder crumbles down you go.
ReplyDeleteguys guys guys....it is just d way life is. Most of d inventors we hear today were just supervisors in d projects....when a breakthrough was made they were d ones recognized and every other person is simply referred to as ''his team''
