good friend always said: Just do the math!

Trust

for/towards you, is inversely proportional to how much you care about what happens to you!

Who is your customer?

Who counts on you? To Whom do you give work/time For Whom do you perform work?

Who benefits from your service?


Who are you helping? Who pays you or rewards you for what you have done?

Who would miss you the most if you left without saying good-bye?

It works everywhere, with everyone!
