A well-known speaker started off his seminar by
holding up a rupee 500 note. In the room of 200, he asked, “Who would like this
rupee 500 note?”Hands started going up. He said, “I am going to give this note
to one of you but first let me do this. “He proceeded to crumple the note up.
He then asked, “Who still wants it?”
Still the hands up in the air. “Well,” he replied,
“What if I do this?” And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it
into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now all crumpled and dirty. “Now
who still wants it?”
Still the hands went into the air. “My friends, you
have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you
still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth rupee
500/-. Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled and ground into the
dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel
as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen,
you will never lose your value.
You
are special. Don’t ever forget it! Never let yesterday‘s disappointments
Overshadow
tomorrow‘s dreams.
“VALUE
HAS A VALUE ONLY IF ITS VALUE IS VALUED”
