Those people who always exceed expectations are known as Value
creators and they end up as the rich and wealthy of our society. If
they are paid $3,000, they will work as if they are being paid
$20,000.
If they are expected to generate $10,000 worth of profits, they
will create $30,000 worth of value! They are called value creators
because they create value for companies.
It is through their efforts, that the company makes more and more
profits every year. As a result, their income is not considered an
expense to the company, but a great investment.
Even in periods of downturns, when everyone else is getting
retrenched and pay cuts, they get pay increases, bonuses and stock
options.
The company knows that for every dollar they invest in them, they
will return triple the value. These people are the high flyers who
get promoted super fast and get their incomes doubling and tripling
in a few years.
In the past, income was based mainly on seniority and loyalty. The
longer you stayed, the more you were valued. In today's world,
income is based entirely on the amount of value you can create.
It is not uncommon to see people who are much younger, with a lot
less experience directing businesses and earning lots more than
senior workers who have been with the company a lot longer.
Value creators are indispensable assets to their company! They are
very hard to replace. And that is why companies will pay them more
and more and offer them partnerships to retain them.
Value creators are never out of a good job. They are usually head
hunted by other companies all the time, the head hunters offering
to double their income if they join them.
This habit does not just apply to employees, it applies to anyone
from sports stars to business owners.
When Michael Jordan was interviewed and asked how he became the
world's greatest basketball player, he replied, "I expect more from
myself than anyone would ever expect from me!"
When my coach expects me to train three times a week, I would train
five times. When my coach expects me to score 15 points for each
game, I would score 36 points! That is why I am the best in the
world".
Do more than anyone expects of you and you will find the river of
success flow like an never-rending stream into your life. Cultivate
this habit now and you will start to see results immediately.
