WATER TAPS DON'T PRODUCE WATER

WATER TAPS DON'T PRODUCE WATER

I don’t think we need to disagree on this.?

Imagine you get into your bathroom, put soap on your sponge, turn on the tap, and boom, the water stops flowing. (Read this a bit dramatically.)?

Who do you blame or curse? The tap? Definitely, hell NO!?

Taps don’t produce water - and it’s that simple.

To understand how this works, water is produced somewhere, carried in pipes through tanks to your tap, and ultimately dispensed. Your tap's role is simply to moderate when and how the water is dispensed depending on how loosely or tightly you open it.?

The purpose of a tap is relevant but limited. Its usefulness manifests only when there is water in the pipes. Without water, no matter how fanciful or expensive a tap is, it will never produce water.?

Likened to us as humans, you offer no “value” without “substance”. Merely living your life without value doesn’t make you useful.?

Your existence must deliver something of value that people want and need. You can’t just be a “tap” without “water”.?

So, you must prioritize the production of value—water. Produce enough and store it. Make sure it’s in abundance so you can serve multiple needs and demands. Also, ensure you have a plan that keeps it running, but even that, in the right measure and quality.?

These should be your goal. And remember, no one uses a tap that doesn’t produce water.?

Your usefulness to anyone is determined by your value. A tap without flowing water rusts eventually.
