This Bossku offers a few million dollars token of appreciation to his departing secretary
One day, a billionaire was saying goodbye to his longtime secretary as she retired. Wanting to thank her for years of loyalty, he decided to give her a few million dollars so she’d never have to worry about money again.
To his surprise, the secretary shook her head and said, “Why would you do that? I already have a few billion of my own.”
Completely stunned, the billionaire replied, “But… how? You’ve only ever made five or six thousand dollars a month. How could you possibly save that much?”
She smiled and said, “All those years, I sat in on your meetings. When you were on the phone buying land or stocks, I quietly did the same — just on a smaller scale. I copied your moves. So when you made millions, I made hundreds of thousands. And when you made billions, I made millions.”
Life lesson
Who you surround yourself with matters. There are people who drain your energy… and people who lift you higher.
Bees always lead you to flowers.
Surround yourself with people who inspire growth, not negativity.
When you walk with smart people — you grow wiser.
When you walk with driven people — you start aiming higher.
When you walk with dreamers — you learn to dream bigger.
But if you spend your time with those who complain, who have no dreams, no goals, they’ll only pull you down.
Therefore, choose your circle wisely. Build the kind of environment that fuels your growth. And be that positive force for the people around you.
