“You can’t hire someone else to do your push-ups for you.”
                           JIM ROHN




Reflection:
       What this quote means is that you cannot pay somebody to do the work for you because you are not learning. If you hire someone to do you work for you then what are you learning you are not learning anything. You have to do it yourself so that you can learn how to things on your own. If you don’t hire someone you are choosing the right because you are not being lazy. If you do things on your own you are learning and you are not hiring someone to do the job for you. Hiring someone is choosing the wrong so always choose the right.
