There was a guy who worked worked and worked, dreaming to get on the heights he wanted to achieve. He was a silent worker burning his midnight oil to achieve the LARGER GOALS as suggested in his company. He was always praised for his work and never rewarded, but he took those words seriously and thought one day he will be rewarded. He achieved some goals for the company and thought he will be getting the reward this time. He was so happy for the same. He was praised by all and was preached as well.
Preaching 1: Everybody should be involved in the decision making process.
Preaching 2: You should always take your seniors advice.
Preaching 3: Never question your superiors.
Preaching 4: Whatever you achieve is a Team achievement and should be shared.
Preaching 5: Its your ship and you are the chief so make sure it dose good. Its not the cure its the caption that matters.
Now the results and consequences what a hard worker achieved out of these preaching and the underline meaning of these.
Result of preaching 1: Every decision was a vague approach and had no base, all the logic and data given by this guy were buried in these meetings and his so called seniors buried his approach as well. The best part was that if there were any thing positive what he said was either made negative or if they were unable to do the same they just changed the name. They called it theirs!Most of the time decision making exercise was a battle ground and if he wanted to be firm the Preaching 2 came in his way.
Result of preaching 2: He went to everybody with his brilliant ideas. They were thrashed in the light of preconceived notion and assumptions. The unwillingness to accept anything from a new person made his ideas a subject of joke. Though people outside did appreciate his work, Intelligence and devotion for work. He kept on improving his ideas in the hope that one day they will like it and they even liked it sometimes just that they changed the name plate on the same. He never questioned them since the Preaching 3 came in his way.
Result of preaching 3: He was told to shed his armour which he earned by giving his blood since there are others who need it. He was told to work hard as a worker in diamond mine and hand over the diamond to others since they deserve to be draped by it. He was told to do all the work for others and handover to them as they need to have the pie as well. He wanted to know why this is happening but the Preaching 4 came in his way.
Result of preaching 4: He worked and achieved his goals and contributed into the LARGER GOALS as well. He assumed that he will be recognized for the same, if nothing else he will get a pat on his back. His expectations were trashed and he saw all his work getting credited to others. He was left alone he was a lonely man in the crowed with nobody on his side. He didnt stop and thought someday somebody will say him thanks, but it never happened. He never wanted to be praised but at least mentioned for his contribution. The cake was cut there were claps but not for him nether he had a share. He wanted to ask why? But the preaching said it belongs to all. He agreed to the same but was confused that the concept of all doesnt have his name. He wanted to question why but Preaching 5 came in his way as the caption is there to give applauds and support not to quest for them.
Result of preaching 5: If there was a mistake done by anybody he was the one fixing it. If there were any rewards he was not mentioned. He thought thats the trade I am the caption I should get things going no matter what. Then there was a storm and he worked hard to get the ship out of it. He made it sail and then sailed the same out of bad whether and unfavourable conditions.
Then the time came when he was asked to leave the ship as the ship was assigned a new caption. He wanted to question that when he needed somebody nobody helped him. He was sailing alone in the storm and now when its sunny and calm and he can make this sail in a good direction he is asked to quit. He was told that the ship was shaking in the storm and now we will have somebody who can control that.When he was asked to leave he requested that can he for once address all of them, he was even refused for the same.
He was deserted on a lonely island and then he realised what the preaching really meant and what have it done to him?
Then he realized what has really happened. Preaching 1 was just a straight forward direction which said do as you are told to. You are nobody to make decision you are there to follow them. Since the people around you are your seniors they have a lobby and above all, they are Honourable Men. They are the one who are always right. Preaching 2 was a reiteration of the old prophecy that idea are not generated they are owned by these Honourable men. So if you have any either dont speak or if you do so you should be ready to face the consequences. Preaching 3 just meant a very simple thing; you should bow in front of them and be in the helm of these Honourable men. Preaching 4 was the simplest one as it said very clearly what ever is achieved is an all because of your hard work, but we are not thankful to you. All the credit and applauds go to these Honourable men. Since they are the one used to it and they are the one who will get it no matter what you do. Preaching 5 was the best of the jokes anybody cracked at you, you are the caption so you need to sail the ship. You are even required to row the same; in adverse situation even if the ship shakes its your fault. No matter how hard you have tried to control it as well as how bad are the storms. Since these men are here to eat the cakes not to sweat in baking them.Since they are honourable men so they will be rewarded they will be praised, what if they dont appreciate you, what if they dont put an effort to get things done. There will be applauds for them and all the crowed will bow inform for them. Since they are honourable men so you will be in their helm no matte how much you know or you devote. They are the future of country they are there to rule not to be advised. They are here to lead the stride not to walk with them and share the pain.
Since They are Honourable men and thus they are Lambs for Lions.
