someday all this can be...mine?

are you in control of your future, of your present?

i just heard a little story, and i immediately needed to share it with you.

picture this in your mind:

it is 5:00pm and you are getting off of work, you head outside and there as you exit the doors to the parking lot, is a brand new swanky looking Jag.

it is a wonderful car and looks very, very nice. it is shiny in all the right places and standing beside the car is your boss. your boss calls you over and and tells you he just picked it up this morning and spent all day showing it off... he seems really proud of it.

so what?

he then tells you to sit inside of it, so you do. you have a seat on the fine soft leather and look at the wonderful decor.

your boss gets in the driver's seat, and fires up the engine. he asks you to take note of the finely tuned engine and the excellent workmanship inside of the car.

OK, so what?

he starts driving down the highway and is talking about how well it drives and hugs the road. you are now also taking the time to notice all the cool gadgets and features like the GPS, and titanium touches to the console.

so what... "big deal, this is not my car." you say to yourself.

your boss turns off the highway, and just a little ways down the road, stops in front of a large house.

he asks you to get out and look. he tells you it is a huge house and very beautiful and it is.

so what? it's not yours.

he asks you to notice the details like the gables and the quality of the windows. you see them and say again "so what?" he shows you the massive deck where he can sit with his family and friends, he even tells you the house comes with support staff because it is so big.

so what?

he asks if you can see the swimming pool and how nice it would be to have one, and shows you a big square peice of concrete in the middle of the lawn.

so what? what does any of this have to do with you anyways? you are never going to be able to buy any of this with what this guy pays you!

he pushes on with the conversation; and asks you if you saw the big square of concrete there, you tell him yes you seen it. he says to you that it is a helicopter landing pad, and how cool that is.

so what?

he then says at the end of all this: "if you work hard, put in lots of extra hours, produce and perform, meet your quotas and are loyal to my company for the rest of your life... some day, all this will be mine."

after listening to this, i found that the truth of it was startling, and to some i am sure that it is frightening.

if it is upsetting, then you should be getting educated. time invested in yourself always pays off in dividends.
