Let's take a trip to the history of the American civil war .
A man in civilian clothes rode a bicycle past a group of soldiers trying to amend a small defensive barrier. The leader of the soldiers was barking out instructions at them without making any effort or attempt to help them or get involved.
The rider of the bicycle stopped and asked the commander why he was not involved in showing them examples. The commanders simply replied
"Sir, I am a Corporal."
That meant he was too big for those kind of jobs.
The disguised stranger apologised came down from his bicycle and went ahead to help the exhausted and visibly tired soldiers. After the job was completed it turned to the commander and said
"if you need more help son call me."
With that, he claimed his bicycle and continued his journey.
Little did the soldiers know that the disguise bicycle rider was there president and Commander in chief.
His name? George washington.
Indeed, such a man or woman who is ready to do the meanest, smallest, dirtiest jobs anywhere dr, will always rise to the top full stop
This is a very common principle of life that is usually neglected by folks today .
Humility is a virtue that should be learnt and exhibited at at every given opportunity .
The humble can only be exalted and the proud can only be humbled.
