USING YOUR HIDDEN ASSETS
Each of us has something locked within us all that is necessary
to achieve wealth and greatness.
It’s merely a matter of learning to use these hidden
assets, of investing them so to speak, so we can cash in on them.
The tragic thing is that so many go through life without
ever putting them to use.
Sometimes,
trouble and adversity is necessary to make people use their resourcefulness and
brain power to achieve success.
Short Stories to
Inspire You
1.
A bookkeeper lost his job as Christmas was
approaching. He had no money to buy his 10-year-old son a gift.
Instead of merely crying and cursing why he lost his
job, he went to work making the boy a gift.
Using two wheels from a discarded baby carriage, a few
pieces of wood from the basement, and some bright red paint, he constructed a
toy that captured the attention of the entire neighbourhood.
Other
children wanted similar toys. The demand grew so fast that the unemployed
bookkeeper turned his basement into a factory, then moved his production to a
real industrial plant.
The
toy the bookkeeper designed was called “Time No Dey”
2. Or consider the case of a soldier who returned
from World War I. He had been a salesman before the war but was now unemployed.
He used his hidden assets too. He took a chunk of ice cream, stuck a stick in
it for a handle, dipped it in chocolate covering—and the Eskimo Pie was born!
Have you searched carefully for any “hidden”
resources you’ve overlooked simply because they weren’t in some form you could
bank immediately?
Do
you have some plan or idea which might prove of great value if you brought it into
the open and put it to use?
A
very successful man once gave this splendid formula for gaining wealth.
“Get some useful item that will bring repeat sales,” said
he. “Then put everything you have into taking it to the millions of people who
need it.”
His
name was F. W. Woolworth. He didn’t create anything new. He merely took
something old and gave it a new method of sales and distribution.
The
opportunities our country offers today are greater than ever—and growing
constantly. Think, for example, of the millions to be made by someone who
devises some simple method of reducing traffic accidents.
Somewhere
you have unused assets. Put them to work for you and make yourself financially
independent.
The
stories of others will give you the spike you need to make it. Listening or
reading definitely will help you but after all that if you don’t put it to
work, you just end up like your old self.
In
everything we do, let’s always make it a point to make a move, that move must
always be channelled in a positive direction, with faith, hard work and
persistence, you will tap into that part that is unearthed in you and bring out
the best in you.
I
get inspired to motivate and see others reach the peak of their life’s with
just having the right attitude to always start something new.
