"Our rewards in life will always be in direct proportion to our contribution." This is the law that stands as the supporting structure of all economics and of our personal well being. . . .
Most people concentrate on the bowl marked "Rewards." That is, they want things—more money, a better home, education for the kids, travel, retirement and so on—all rewards. They're hungering for the rewards, but the rewards aren't materializing because they're forgetting the bowl marked "Contributions." In other words, they're concentrating on the wrong bowl. They're like the man who sat in front of the stove and said, "Give me heat, and then I'll give you wood." He could sit there until he froze to death. Stoves don't work that way, and neither does life or economics.
