Do You Spend Time to Sharpen Your Mind Everyday? Mind Management
There was one woodcutter. He used to cut wood daily slogging it out in the hot sun, sweating. The same company, employed another woodcutter as well. The second woodcutter used to cut more than the first. As a result of that, after one year the company increased his salary. The first woodcutter complained that I have been working so long in this organization, and you have increased his salary more than mine? They said, “Look, we are production oriented. He is cutting double the trees that you are cutting, you also increase your performance will increase your salary more than his.” So he tried harder and harder but he was not able to increase his production. So he went to them and said, “How does he cut so many two trees?”
They said why don’t you ask him.
He went and asked the second lumberjack, “How do you do it?”
That lumberjack said, “Every time I cut a tree
I take a five-minute break in which I sharpen my saw.
Do you sharpen your saw?”
The other one (first one) said, “No, I just keep hitting and hitting and hitting.”
Second one said, “That is the mistake.” “You need to sharpen your saw.”
