The Dog and Its Master
A man was gathering his belongings and preparing at home to go on a long journey. His loyal dog sat on the threshold of the door, patiently waiting for his master to prepare. When the man finished his job tying his bags and saw his dog yawning at the door, he asked "I am ready, why are you still standing and yawning?" The dog looked at his master and said "Sir, I was ready hours ago; I grew sleepy from waiting for you."
Loyal friends do their duties on time; disruption and delay mostly originate from managers and leaders. Those who complete their preparation and wait patiently bear the delay of those moving slowly. Time management and preparation are the essential conditions for jobs to run without disruption. Being ready on time is the finest demonstration of respect and loyalty.
Loyal friends whose work is ready bear someone else's delay. One who is ready knows how to wait. Moving on time is discipline. Delay disrupts work.
Loyalty is waiting ready. One who is prepared does not get left on the road. Time management brings success.
