Three Bricklayers
by Catherine Pulsifer

"Once there were 3 bricklayers. Each one of them was asked what they were doing.
The first man answered gruffly, 'I'm laying bricks.'
The second man replied, 'I'm putting up a wall.'
But the third man said enthusiastically and with pride, 'I'm building a cathedral.'"

This story clearly reveals two secrets of success:

1. Attitude
Your attitude towards whatever you are doing determines your ultimate level of success.

2. Ability to See the Bigger Picture
Being able to see the end result, rather than just the task, eliminates obstacles, focuses your energy, and provides motivation to excel.
