“Several years ago on an extremely hot day, a crew of men were working on the road bed of the railroad when they were interrupted by a slow moving train. The train ground to a stop and a window in the last car— which incidentally was custom made and air conditioned—was raised. A booming, friendly voice called out, “Dave, is that you?” Dave Anderson, the crew chief called back, “Sure is, Jim, and it’s really good to see you.” With that pleasant exchange, Dave Anderson was invited to join Jim Murphy, the president of the railroad, for a visit. For over an hour the men exchanged pleasantries and then shook hands warmly as the train pulled out. Dave Anderson’s crew immediately surrounded him and expressed astonishment that he knew Jim Murphy, the president of the railroad, as a personal friend. Dave then explained that twenty-three years earlier he and Jim Murphy had started work at the railroad on the same day. One of the men, half jokingly and half seriously, asked Dave why he was still working out in the hot sun and Jim Murphy had gotten to be president. Rather wistfully, Dave explained, “Twenty-three years ago I went to work for $1.75 an hour and Jim Murphy went to work for the railroad.”

“Thomas Carlyle dijo: Un gran hombre muestra su grandeza en la forma en la que trata a alguien más pequeño. El valor que le das a las personas determina si eres un motivador o un manipulador de hombres. La motivación es actuar juntos para un beneficio mutuo. La manipulación es trabajar juntos para mi propio beneficio. Hay una diferencia sustancial. Con el motivador todos ganan. Con el manipulador sólo gana él mismo.”

“_اذا كانت المهمة صعبة أو مزعجة أو بغيضة فقم بإنجازها على الفور , كلما طال انتظارك قبل ان تبدأ في العمل على اتمامها زادت صعوبتها و مشقتها .. مثل الوقوف على الحافة المرتفعة من حوض السباحة لأول مرة , كلما طالت فترة انتظارك قبل اتخاذ القرار بالقفز , قلت احتمالات قيامك بالقفزة.”
