I read a story some time ago that brings to mind a very powerful life skill, that can transform ordinary individuals into extraordinary beings.
Many of us spend more time working in our business, maybe thinking that is the most important part of our success. This is much further from the truth than some one of us could ever imagine.
Please read and grasp the moral of this story:
Some years ago an auction took place where some items of a wealthy industrialist was being auctioned off.
Towards the end of the auction the auctioneer picked up an old, dusty, discolored violin that had seen better days...
He looked at the audience and asked rather mockingly, "What will you bid for this?... $100 no?... Do I hear $75?... How about $50?... $25?... $5?"
"How about $1?" he begged, as the audience started laughing.
Through the din of the laughter a faint voice spoke up, "Excuse me, could I have a moment of your time?"
A frail looking old guy came up and took the violin from the auctioneer's hand. He turned his back to the audience while expertly plucking and tuning the old instrument.
After he finished tuning he turned slowly to face the audience, motioned for silence, gently placed the violin under his chin and started playing.
A hush fell over the audience as the old guy serenaded them with the most heavenly solo. They were literally mesmerized by the beautiful music that was coming from the old violin.
After the old guy finished, he bowed and handed the violin back to the auctioneer who was by now all smiles, and walked out the door through tremendous applause.
The smiling auctioneer looked at the violin and then asked the audience, "Well! What will your bid be for this Most Extraordinary and Exquisite piece of instrument?...
Do I hear $1000?... $2000 from the man in the hat?... $3000?... Do I hear $4000 from the lady in red?... Back to the man in the hat for $5000? Five it is... Going once... Twice... This unique instrument Sold for $5000."
Wow! This story paints a vivid picture of what
"added value" really means.
At the beginning of the story the auctioneer couldn't even get $1 for that violin; however, by it being used by a skilled individual the true value was brought out where it could be sold for 5000 times more than before.
Just like how the price of the violin was greatly increased through "added value", it's the same principle that apply to us as individuals.
We have full control over the value we want to offer to the world. We can increase this value to 5, 10, 100 or 1000's of times.
There is no limit to how much we can enhance our lives through the
"added value" technique... and guess what? The more valuable we become, just like the violin, the more income we will attract.
Start working on yourself and watch your reflection start impacting your business in ways that you have never thought possible.
Remember this, for us to become truly successful in anything, we MUST work ON our lives and not in our lives.
Gerber said it best,
"Your business is nothing but a distinct reflection of who you are...
*If your thinking is sloppy, your business will be sloppy...
*If you're disorganized, then your business will be disorganized...
*If you're greedy the people around you will be greedy...
So if your business is to change - as it must to be successful - YOU MUST CHANGE!"
