Story of the pencil maker
Long, long ago, there was this pencil marker who makes the best and beautiful pencils in the world. One day, he made a set of pencils which were the best he ever made. Before he pack the pencils and send them out for sale, he told the pencil;
You are the best pencils that I have ever made, but you must remember 5 values that are very important.
First Value; you must let people hold onto you. Without anyone holding onto you, you will not be able to accomplish anything.
Second Value; No matter what surface you write on, you will always leave a mark. So you must always think before you act.
Third Value; you must be able to withstand the pain that there will be people who try to sharpen you. But this will only let you become sharper and better.
Fourth Value; No matter how pretty, how beautiful or tall/short/fat/thin you are, what matters most is the inner lead.
Fifth Value; whenever you make a mistake, you can always use the eraser on your head to erase the mistake. But will it leave a mark? It will always leave a mark even if you rub away.
SME juniors are you reading these stories? I do hope you did. =)
