LOOK FOR THE GOLD
Andrew Carnegie came to America from Scotland as a young boy. He started out by doing odd jobs and ending up as one of the largest steel manufacturer in United States. At one time, he had 43 millionaires working for him.
A million dollars is a lot money today, but in the 1920s it was worth much more.
Someone once asked Mr.Carnegie how he deal with people. Andrew Carnegie replied, "Dealing with people is a lot like digging for gold: When you go digging for an ounce of gold you have to move tons of dirt. But when you go digging, you don't looking for the dirt, you go looking for the gold."
Andrew Carnegie's reply has a very important message. There is something positive in every person and every situation. We have to dig deep to look for the positive.
What is your focus? Search for the gold. If you are looking for what is wrong with people or with things, you will find many faults. What are we looking for Gold or dirt? Even in paradise, fault finders will find faults. Most people find what they are looking for.
" Start looking for what is right in a person or situation."
