To receive orders




Was wondering how difficult it may be to work on a colleagues "orders".. or a friend's. Is it just the violation of one's personal perception of what hierarchy one is willing to work in that hurts the ego ? Or is it really justified to think that a particular person cannot make us work on his/her "orders"; be it a friend or colleague? Or maybe.. its plain jealousy arising out of an inferiority complex...


Its difficult to pinpoint, as different people show different signs. But one truth cannot be denied: working on someone's orders is not as demeaning as many seem to think of it. Yes it is difficult to digest at times because of ego, especially when it is your colleague or friend calling the shots on you. However, if we can only practice hard on ignoring the ego and letting it be a learning opportunity for us to become better leaders, the whole problem will get solved eventually.

Work , and when you work, work well, no matter what.
