There is an old story concerning some men who were moving bricks from one point to another. A visitor approached and asked one of them,"What are you doing?"The worker responded that he was moving bricks from one point to the other.The visitor asked the man again and the worker shouted with an angry tone,"Can't you see that am moving bricks from one point to another! Don't you have eyes? ".The visitor left the worker and asked several other workers and to his surprise all of them replied in the same angry and stressed tone.The visitor felt disappointed and upset.After much time, he finally discovered a particular worker who was happy as he went about his business. He asked the man," what are you doing? "and the man replied," we are carrying bricks to build the corner walls.We are building a beautiful church."The visitor became happy and moved on.This story is a good illustration for vision and their power.The workers who shouted with anger,appeared to be stressful because they unaware of why they are carrying such a load of bricks;they did not know the end result of their action.But the worker who was happy knew the end result of his action.He knew how every brick helped the construction of the church; hence he felt that his work was meaningful.
