A father before he died said to his son: “this is a watch your grandfather gave and this is more than 200 years old, but before I give it to you go to the watch shop on the first street, and tell him I want to sell it, and see how much it is”.
He went and then came back to his father, and said, “the watchmaker paid 5 dollars because it’s old”.
He said to him : “go to the coffee shop”. He went and then came back, and said: “He paid $5 father”.
“Go to the museum and show that watch”.
— He went then came back, and said to his father “They offered me a million dollars for this piece”.
The father said: “I wanted to let you know that the right place values your value in a way right, don’t put yourself in the wrong place and get angry if you don’t. Who knows your value is who appreciates you, don’t stay in a place that doesn’t suit you”.
Moral of the story:
When you have not realise your full potential, often it is because you are in the wrong company and you mix around with the birds who aren’t of the same feather with you. Believe in what you are truly made up of and find the people who will build you up and make you greater. Be the old watch that is the gem in the museum.
