My teacher been told the story of a carpenter, here is the story.


There was a carpenter who had worked for 20 years in a construction company, at one time, he wanted to quit working because he had felt tired and was old. But his boss gave last job before he stop working, his boss told him to build a house. but because he was already tired with job and he feels he will stop working, so he was not doing his last job seriously and use raw materials that are not good. Some time later, the house he built was finished and he went to say goodbye to his boss, then his boss at the time his boss gave a key and said "it is a house for you, it is a  reward for your hard work for 20 years working in my company .."
The carpenter shock when he knew that the house he built turned out for him, and he felt very sorry for not doing it in earnest.

we are like carpenters, carpenter who built a house, as we are build our own lives. and success in life depends on what we are doing today.


so, what do you think about the story above?

    Whoever ESC (save) from Hell fire , He is success 

  • Time plus effort equals success.

  • meaningful story ,,,in my mind   this  story like a lesson for everyone... for to achieve success during the our life we have  to be always righteous human  and behave righteous  to ourselves  to  everyone .. truly we have to behave like this...it seems obvious from the story ..thank u 

  • success is an achievement that we got because of our big effort, base on the story that the carpenter have dedicate his life in the company and as a reword he got a house , it is nice story that we can use it as a reference of live in our life ......

  • Effort in the right direction is Success I guess thats what i think.
