There are times in our lives where we seem to be down and out, for a loss, or lacking. And things just don't seem to be working out. What do you do at times like these? The bills are high, there's a problem with the car, and jobs just aren't hiring. What could be the cure for it?
This reminds me of and old story about a man, a mountain, and streets of gold. This story begins when a lad by the name of Robert who all his life he aspired to find gold...
It begins, at an early age where the boy would follow his father threw the mountains just beyond their home. "One day", said his father, "You shall find the gold hidden in these mountains." He would always follow his father searching for gold. But they would only come out with small finds, and shifts of this metallic bundle of joy.
So all his life, the boy wanted to find this gold. And so he searched just as his father had searched the mountains. Over 40 years went by, and just after that long day he had just been in those same mountains he had inherited from his father. His heart finally became distraught. His vision, or childhood dream of finding his father's gold began to give in to the weight of the search.
He had never had a doubt in his mind that he couldn't find it. For it was his joy in the search that made it a wondrous goal to achieve. But now, the thrill had gone some how. So later that day after he had his meal, tried settling down, as the sun began going down -he went and found his gun. He picks up his Winchester to take aim at some cans, and bottles he just lined up by some ol' rocks.
"Ping!" Goes one of the cans, "Splash!" the bottles! With one bottle left, good ol' Rob takes one last aim just to let out all his shames, stresses, and aggressions -misses! Striking one of the big rocks protruding from underneath.
"Woah, that's about the most shiniest piece of gold rock I've ever seen." Rob said, as the gold he'd been searching for all these years had been buried right underneath his own house.
In this story, we find a guy who all his life searches for a treasure that had always been hidden right in front of him. This -I must say, holds the key to the answer of many of our own problems.

is coming along? Well, as usual, you're right. A group that you're quite
active with is about to ask -- if not outright beg -- that you become more
involved. A lot more involved. Does this mean the fun is over? Will you
have to worry about things like organization, paperwork, and so on? Not
hardly. Delegate, delegate, delegate. You're the ideas person. That's
why they want you. Assemble your staff.
