One hot day a few years ago, a group of men were working on the foundation of a railway. At this moment, a slowly approaching train interrupted their work. The train stopped, and the Windows of the last carriage - which, by the way, was specially built and air-conditioned - were opened. A deep, friendly voice called out, "David, is that you?"

The leader of the group replied, "It's me, Jim, nice to meet you." So David Anderson and Jim Murphy, the CEO of Railroad, had a nice chat. After a pleasant conversation lasting more than an hour, the two warmly shook hands.
David Anderson's men immediately surrounded him. They were shocked that he was a friend of the president of Murphy Railroad. David explained that he and Jim Murphy had started working on the railroad on the same day more than twenty years earlier.
One of the men asked David, half seriously, half jokingly, why he was still working in the hot sun while Jim Murphy was president. David said wistfully, "Twenty-three years ago I was working for $1.75 an hour. Jim Murphy was working for the railroad.
Anthony Robbins, an American expert on potential success, said, "If you are a salesman, is it easier to make $10,000 or $100,000? A hundred thousand dollars, I tell you! Why is that? If your goal is to make $10,000, then you're just going to make a living. If this is your goal and why you work, do you get excited at work? Will you be enthusiastic?"
