There Are Two Kinds of People

This is a quote from ex-Prime Minister of India -

INDIRA GANDHI.

Lou Ludwig has a question in this post.

Who do you want to be?

There Are Two Kinds of People

Original content by Lou Ludwig

There Are Two Kinds of People 

My grandfather once told me that there were two kinds

of people: those who do the work and those who take

the credit. He told me to try to be in the first

group; there was much less competition.”

Indira Gandhi, Indian Prime Minister

 

 

As I see it. . . . . . . .

There are two kinds of people

 

You see them in every walk of life; there is a group of people who go out . . . . and get the job done without looking for fanfare. They will do what has to be done when it needs to be done.

 

There is another group who looks to take the credit for what is done successfully . . . . and disassociate themselves from anything that misses the mark.

 

Group one are the movers and shakers they focus on getting things done . . . . and they don’t look for recognition. They are the people that people will seek out the a job has to be done . . . . and do it with excellence. 

 

Group two will do very little . . . . and is looking for credit for what other people accomplish. People in this group can scam the system for awhile. In time they will be found out for what they don’t do. They talk a good story . . . . but do very little.

 

The people in group one will be appreciated by the group of people that they surround themselves with as someone that can be counted on . . . . and a valued resource.

 

There are two kinds of people . . . . one that can be counted on to deliver . . . . and one that tries to talk a good game . . . . but in the long run has no game in them.

Good reblog Praful.  I always heard there were 3 kinds of people: 1. Those who make things happen, 2. Those who watch things happen, and 3. Those who ask "what happened".  Have a great day!

Carol Williams - and the third kind of people can go nowhere - they are always dependent on others...
