? You never get the PRAISE you deserve because the people who should buy you pressies are too busy responding to those who are demanding pressies. You’re left with a deficit of praise and honour.
? You never get the MENTORING you deserve because those who should be mentoring you are taken out by fire fighting within the organisation. Fire fighting is the black hole of coaching.
? You never get the PAY RISE you deserve because you are easily forgotten about. Your agreeability is that fabulous that people think that you’d work for nothing. And you would. This creates a pay gap, while the demanding are rewarded with more.
? You never get the CONNECTIONS you deserve because those with the power of connection are busy connecting the fresh princes to their Bel Airs! They get the prime placement while you only get the side view.
? You, however, will not remain this way. Eventually God with smash through every glass ceiling of neglect and injustice and get you where He needs you to be. Humility is a master key to THE ELEVATOR OF GOD. He will lift you up in due season.
Smile and nod. You have an advocate in heaven.
