There is a young lady. She is quite highly educated, charming, energetic and ambitious in the eyes of many. There was once the president of a company that kept her profile in view, considering to invite her into the business. However, no action was taken.
Until one day, this lady began to look for job. That company drew her attention, and she applied for it. She got the job, as the CEO of the company.
She has been working very hard, and she appears to be well pleasing to other companies and employers. She is praised to have the potential to bring the company to another pinnacle of success. All she needs is just the time to prove it.
She has brilliant peers also, who are working as the CEO of other companies, while some are having their own businesses. When they come together, she is always the one who appears to be the brightest.
One day, the lady happens to have the opportunity to have a meal with the president, with the CEO's of other companies. After the meal, the president tells the successful stories of other CEO's to the lady, describing how they achieve their success, how they manage to create millions of dollars in a short time, how they manage to gain new business in a completely blue ocean, and so forth, as always. Feeling not comfortable to be at behind, the lady CEO begins to present to the president, how she will implement her plans, how she will put her effort into actions...
and...
... she stops...
... because she suddenly feels that she is a loser... as she suddenly realizes that, the president is not hiring her to be brilliant for display, but to create value for the company. She thoroughly cannot be compared to the other CEO's in this aspect.
The president tells her, "No worry, I will still have you as my CEO, but... but... other CEO's appear to perform much much better than you..."
She thinks in her heart: "Isn't it useless to appear outstanding in the eyes of many, but fail to please the person whom I am suppose to?"
