The Worst Job On Earth!!
By Tal Fighel
Posted Thursday, November 11, 2004
I used to absolutely dread going to work.
I was a factory worker at a well known window manufacturing company.
My job consisted of pulling pieces of wood off of a chute, checking them for knots and other defects, sorting them accordingly, and then piling them about 5 feet high on pallets.
That's what I did. All day long. Can you say, "brain dead"?
The factory was too noisy to listen to headphones. We all had our separate chutes to work at (yeehaw), and the work was fast paced, so talking with other co-workers was difficult.
At the end of each day I'd have to pick wood splinters out of my hands (working with gloves was an option, but it made handling and sorting the wood much more difficult).
We had rotating shifts so one month I'd be working the day shift, and the next I'd be working from 12:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.!
Growing up, I never imagined I'd be stuck in such a horrible job.
But you know what?
I'm actually very GLAD I had the experience of working in a factory!
Why??
...Simply because it *motivated* me to get off my lazy butt and do something better with my life!
Like most people, I'd always had the dream of starting my own business and making piles of money (not wood) as a result.
But I learned (the hard way) that dreams aren't worth JACK unless you take steps to achieve them.
Very few people become wealthy and successful in life, simply because very few people take action to achieve their dreams!
...People are scared that they'll fail. They lack faith that their efforts will pay off. They're afraid to risk their time and money. Or they're just plain lazy like I was!
Trust me, I know how you feel. It's like you're facing a mountain. At the top of the mountain is everything you ever wanted. But in order to get there, you have to CLIMB the mountain, and conquer the pitfalls along the way.
I finally decided that I didn't want to face that proverbial mountain my whole life...
I knew for a FACT that my *dream* was awaiting me at the top. I could let that dream go to waste...Or I could take one step after the other up the mountain and ACHIEVE THE LIFESTYLE I'D ALWAYS WANTED!
You see, there are no "ifs, ands, or buts" when it comes to achieving your dreams.
You simply CHOOSE success.
And then you take the steps to achieve that success. As long as you have the DESIRE (your "fuel" for achieving success) and a PLAN (your "vehicle" for achieving success) you WILL succeed...
There is no question about it. No looking back. No wondering IF you'll succeed.
Success truly IS a CHOICE.
