Let me tell you a story: A giant ship’s engine failed. The ship’s owners tried one ‘professional’ after another but none of them could figure out how to fix the broken engine. Then they brought in a man who had been fixing ships since he was young. He carried a large bag of tools with him and when he arrived immediately went to work. He inspected the engine very carefully, top to bottom. He gently tapped something with his hammer & Instantly, the engine lurched into life. He carefully put his hammer away and the engine was fixed!
A week later, the owners received an invoice from the old man for Rs.10,000. What?! the owners exclaimed. “He hardly did anything…!!!”. So, they wrote to the man; “Please send us an itemised invoice.”
The man sent an invoice that read:
Tapping with a hammer: Rs.100/-
Knowing where to tap: Rs.9,900/-
Effort is important but experience and knowing where to direct that effort makes all the difference.
