Who is your Puppet Master?

As mentioned, today is the day I go back to my office. On the way, I can finally sit down and 'enjoy' the TV Mobile (TV on the bus for those not familiar). One of the commercials was abt a programme that has a segment, hosted by puppets. Then something came into my magician mind. How intelligent is a puppet?? I know I know, asking a dumb question, puppet is a non-living thing but how can it have intelligence in the first place?? But looking from another point of view is, the puppet intelligence is equivalent to the puppet master, the one that is running the puppet. Think of it and see if I am correct.

Now potray this to your life. Assuming your life can be run by someone, who is running it? Your boss or you? Assuming it is run by your boss since most people are working. Now your boss will determine how you go about doing your job, he tells you how a report should be written, how the clients should be approached, tells you when you can knock off, how much income you receive per mth which this income in turn will determine what you get from it for your life. Why finally see the light and you do not like what you are seeing? Well I have more. Assuming your boss is someone of a higher intelligence or a open mindset, then your working life maybe smoother sailing then one whose intelligence is worst than you and does not have a open mind.
Cannot see the point? Supposedly, you have thought of a new marketing campaign for your company and you are very sure that it will work based on the research that you have done, but if your employer does not have the aptitude to perceive the success of this campaign, does not like the idea, it is very unlikely you can start the campaign at all. Get the point? :)

Now what if your life is run by you. You are the puppet master of your life. Now the increase in intelligence would benefit you far better than the same unit of increase in your employers intelligence. Why I said that is because your boss wants to give you the minimum income but you want to give yourself the maximum income. Get it? Which means that you reap the full benefit of increase in your intelligence while your boss will share most of it with you if you have a job :D

Of course I am not saying that you should quit your job and run a business or freelancing. Practice and gain intelligence while on a job. Once the amt of intelligence is able to support your daily affair with reasonable certainty, it maybe time to fully reap the benefits of your intelligence!

Cheers!

That's a good one. Indeed, you own your own life, you are the one who make the choices in what to do in life. Our association with other people, including our boss, must based on win-win situation where we get what we want and the company achieve what they want as well :)
