I am ashamed of myself, I heard this true to life story from my friend... a story about a vendor who sells juice. This is true because the vendor is under her supervision. He is the boss of that vendor.
I will make the long story short... the vendor has 7 children, she is poor but guess what... she is earning more than my friend which is her boss. She sells juices and she has a commission for every bottle that she sell. The vendor is breaking records, the quota that she need to reach in order to keep her job is only 500 bottles but this strong vendor is selling more than 1000 bottles per day. According to my friend... an average vendor cannot even sell 400 bottles per day but this vendor is different... she is working like an animal, she start working at 5 AM, she works hard and work relentlessly. Even though she is still poor because she have 7 children, she still manage to send them all to school and feed them everyday, what a heroic act. This vendor is even earning more than an ordinary white collar employee. I bet she will become rich one day if she learned to manage her earnings very well. The job is so difficult, she has to push the cart that has a freezer on it and full of juices. From what I understand the cart is weighing more than 40 kilos which is really heavy if you're just a woman trying to push it all day long.
So never underestimate the blue collar jobs, some employees under this category is earning more than you.
It really comes down to who is not making excuses in life. You can become successful if you are working hard and doubling your effort. You can't afford to be making excuses if you want something to happen.
What amazes me is that vendor is making history for herself, she was able to send here children to school and feed them by her blood, sweat and tears. Her story is even becoming popular because my friend always talk about it to other people. Now I understand that if you're really working hard, if your hard work is true... people will talk about you and you don't even know anything about it. They will admire you even if you're not looking for appreciation. They will see your efforts, they will be inspired by your actions and dedication.
So if you want to become successful... quit making excuses, even if it is a blue collar, white collar or whatever color of the job is... do it. Work hard and take your work to another level. Simply do your best and the universe will take care of the rest.
You don't need to become needy if you work hard, some people will help you, you will get the opportunity. They will talk about your hard work and even hire you without applying for a job. They will talk about your story and spread it to different people because they truly admire your work ethic, they will see your capabilities and potential, they will give you a chance to succeed.
