INVEST IN RELATIONSHIP

The litmus test for true friendship is trying times. Anyone who can identify with you in your days of penury is worth keeping as a true friend.

Obviously, when you start climbing the success ladder you will meet new friends which is normal and natural but never forget those who were there for you before you climbed.

Never write off any man because he's nothing today, its only for today, do you know about his tomorrow? With my little years on earth, I have discovered that you must VALUE and INVEST in every relationship irrespective of their family, social, economic and educational background.

You shouldn't rate any body by where he is now but rate him by the vision he carries and the steps he's taking to fulfilling it.

I have seen people who tried in helping people but at the end when their morning comes they have little misunderstanding that set the relationship ablaze. What they most time look at is the end point forgetting the former investments.

It's true that your exit will be remembered longer than your entry and better is the end than the beginning of anything. So in whatever you do to anyone irrespective of who they are and their circumstances, always look at the end. Always show some little kindness because what goes round comes around. 

I once heard of Cristiano Ronaldo who presently play for Real Madrid, the world best player who is a Champion's League winner. In his formative days while on trial to what he is now, in a match that would decide the up turn of his career, the one with the highest goal would be taken as the striker (or what you call it), he and his friend, Albert Frantrau were both on a 1-1, and his friend had the opportunity of scoring the goal that would have granted him the ticket, he passed the ball to C.Ronaldo who scored and was eventually picked.
He asked his friend while he could make such costly decision, his friend told him that He (C.Ronaldo) can do better in it that he has other options to heartily pursue. Today his friend is on his pay roll while he's doing other meaning stuff with his life (story not verified).

How often have we missed our pay roll by simply rendering that helping hand.
IDENTIFY, VALUE and INVEST in every relationship, it will always help you. You only receive HELP by HELPing others reach their goal-destination.
 

Do have a wonderful week ahead!
