Give your best
An elderly mason wanted to retire from his job. So he went to his owner and said, 'Boss, I want to retire from building this house and spend time with my wife and children.'
His master was a little sad because he was the most skilled and hardworking mason. He said, ‘Okay, but will you help us build another house before you leave?’ The old mason gladly agreed to the offer.
But after starting work, it was found that his mind was not there and he was always distracted by his retirement.
He was always thinking of home. So this was the worst job he had ever done before.
When he had finished building the house, his owner came to see the house and handed the old man the house key and said, 'This is your house from now on, my gift to you.'
The old man was sorry to hear this!
He thought to himself, 'Alas! If only I had known once that I was building my own house! That would be the best thing I've ever done! '
In fact, every day we make our life like this house. But we often forget that.
And so in all things we try much less than our best, give much less work.
If we can realize this truth today, we may be able to do our best.
