number one’.
2. Immediate results: Aiming for best results without travelling the
process way.

employees.

know, it was easy for them to achieve, but we are different and
our business is more complex than them.”our business is more complex than them.”
5. Greed: Make million dollar decisions to acquire new equipments
and not consider investing on the renewable assets: the human

8. A house building Contractor who made fortunes in construction business, told his young
supervisor, “I am going to make one last house and you will build it for me. I will be gone for
a year and you are in-charge. Do not worry about the cost, as I want this to be the great piece
of work. You must build the best house we have ever constructed.”
Having given the instructions, the Contractor left. The supervisor thought that here is good
chance to make money as much as possible. He used the cheapest materials, compromised in
all processes avoiding additional cost and time and completed the construction. However, the
house looked beautiful from its outside appearance. The Contractor returned from his trip.
He inspected the house and asked the supervisor what he thought of the house. The
supervisor said, “It is the best house I have ever built” , but he knew its inside hollowness.
The Contractor, thanked the supervisor and praised him for his dedicated work and handed
over the gift deed to him and said, “this house is my parting gift to you.” On hearing this, the
Supervisor was breathless.
