"We get paid for bringing value to..." - Quote by Jim Rohn
We get paid for bringing value to the marketplace. It takes time,... but we get paid for the value, not the time.

“To be successful, you have to develop certain traits such as courage, dignity, charisma and integrity. You also have to recognize that you have to work harder on yourself than on your job. You attract success because of the person you are. Personal development is key.”
“Don’t let the learning from your own experiences take too long. If you have been doing it wrong for the last ten years, I would suggest that’s long enough!”
“The enemies inside us: Indifference, Indecision, Doubt, Worry, and Over-caution.”
More on Value
“What wealth is it to have such friends that we cannot think of them without elevation!”
“The major value of reaching goals is not to acquire it, but it's the person you become while you're working to acquire it.”
“Since time is the one immaterial object which we cannot influence - neither speed up nor slow down, add to nor diminish - it is an imponderably valuable gift. Each of us has a few minutes a day or a few hours a week which we could donate to an old folks home or a children's hospital ward. The elderly whose pillows we plump or whose water pitchers we refill may or may not thank us for our gift, but the gift is upholding the foundation of the universe.”
More on Work
“The reason why worry kills more people than work is that more people worry than work.”
“If I didn't have my parents to think about I'd have given in my notice a long time ago, I'd have gone up to the boss and told him just what I think, tell him everything I would, let him know just what I feel. He'd fall right off his desk! And it's a funny sort of business to be sitting up there at your desk, talking down at your subordinates from up there, especially when you have to go right up close because the boss is hard of hearing.”
“Work is the only answer. I have three rules to live by. One, get your work done. If that doesn't work, shut up and drink your gin. And when all else fails, run like hell!”
