IF YOU ARE A SHEPHERD, BE THE BEST AND YOU MAY LIVE TO OWN THE FLOCK.

One of the most wonderful things about life is that we are all unique with different levels of intelligence, interests, aptitudes, and desires. How dreadfully dull it would be if we all wanted to be nuclear physicists-or bakers. But, regardless of the gifts we may have received at birth and whichever skills we may have since developed, we all have the capability to be the best at what we do. Being the best is strictly a reflection of your attitude and your desire. Whether you areContinue

Dependability by Dr. Napoleon Hill Among the many qualities necessary for you to advance is that “old-fashioned” one called Dependability
John D. Rockefeller, Sr. once told me he rated dependability as the most important trait he looked for in selecting people for responsible positions.

On one occasion, he said, he made a trip abroad and instructed one of his trusted lieutenants to make a certain investment at a fixed time.

While Rockefeller was away, however, market conditions changed. Instead of carrying out instructions, the employee invested in an entirely different security and the transaction paid off several thousand dollars more that if Rockefeller’s directions had been followed.

But his action didn’t bring the employee the reward he expected. Instead, Rockefeller reprimanded him.

“Dependability means that one can be depended upon to carry out instructions to the letter,” he said. “In this one instance, your arbitrary action worked out all right.

“But it could have been disastrous. Next time, get in touch with me before making such a decision yourself.”

There is an old saying that there are three parts to issuing an order. The first is to issue the order. The second is to make sure it is carried out. The third is to make sure it is carried out right.

Under the system of shipbuilding developed by Henry J. Kaiser during World War II, dependability was the prime consideration. Parts, equipment and men had to be at the right place at the right time to maintain production schedules.

Consequently, he hired many expediters to keep production following – and ran frequent personal double checks himself to prevent bottlenecks. Once, for example, he needed several carloads of special materials in a hurry and warned a key worker to keep the train rolling to its destination at all costs.

“If any trainman looks like he’s going to delay the shipment, get the president of the railroad on the telephone, if necessary, and tell him why it must arrive on time,” Kaiser said, “and if he doesn’t cooperate, let me know and I’ll go to the government itself.”

The man who knows the value of dependability in his associates, and refuses to settle for anything less than perfection, is bound to be a success.

Elbert Hubbard, the writer, placed such store on dependability that when Felix Shay applied for a position with him, he gave Shay a unique test. Hubbard instructed Shay to go to the stable, saddle a horse, and lead him around the barn 100 times for exercise. Shay did it with question.

Then Hubbard directed Shay to write a 1,000 word essay on the life and habits of the honey bee. Again Shay did what he was told without question.

As a result, Shay become one of Hubbard’s most trusted associates and remained with him until Hubbard died in the Titanic disaster.

There is no substitute for dependability.

Notice that the word “depend” comes before “ability” in spelling the word.

Many executives rate the two qualities that same order in choosing employees for advancement to high positions.
