Have we done every single activity with effectiveness act?
Well, I just read a book, and find a fable story. I think
this is very inspired story. Hope you enjoy this story.
This
fable is the story about a poor farmer who one day discovered the nest of his
pet goose a glittering golden egg. At first, he thinks it must be some kind of
trick. But as he starts to throw the egg aside, he has second thoughts and
takes it in to be appraised instead.
The egg
is pure gold! The farmer can’t believe his good fortune. He becomes even more
incredulous the following day when the experience is repeated. Day after day,
he awakens to rush the nest and find another golden egg. He becomes fabulously
wealthy; it all seems too good to be true.
But
with his increasing wealth comes greed and impatience. Unable to wait day after
day for the golden egg, the farmer decides he will kill the goose and get them
all at once. But when he opens the goose, he finds it empty. There are no
golden eggs, and now there is no way to get any more. The farmer has destroyed
the goose produced them.
This story told us about the basic definition of
effectiveness. Most people see effectiveness from the golden egg paradigm: the
more you produce, the more you do, the more effective you are. Heyyy ! but as
the story shows, true effectiveness is a function of two things: what produce
(the golden eggs) and the traducing asset to produce (the goose).
If you adopt a pattern of life that focuses on golden eggs
and neglects the goose, you will soon be without the asset that produces golden
eggs. On the other hand, if you only take care of the goose with no aim toward
the golden eggs, you soon won’t have wherewithal to feed yourself or the goose.
So, take care your assets then it will bring you to
effectiveness.
