Another lame story

Got this idea to write after watching some movies. Lolz.
But it's kinda true & applies to all groups, organizations, companies.

Imagine this scenario:

A student just came into a new martial arts school. He told the master that he wanna learn from him. He respected the master as the head of the school. The master saw good potential in the student & he told him that he wanted to teach the student, mentor & disciple him.

The master loved all his students but favor is another issue. The master favors students who show promising potentials. But that doesn't mean the master do not love the less potential students. The master gave equal chance to all students to prove themselves & sometimes deliberately test them without the students knowing it. Of course this one potential student passed all he tests & tasks, it pleases the master & he found favor in the master's eye.

But the master saw some problem with the student. Whenever the master tries to teach, the student always has his own styles & ideas. A little of those is OK. It can be used as base for improvement & creativity. Soon after the master realized it's not just a bit. The student is too full of his own thinking, idea & agenda that it's hard to train this student as he does not flow along with the teaching of the school anymore.

"If your cup is full with water, how can you expect me to fill it with oil for you? All the oils will be spilled out. If you still want me to fill your cup with oil, spill out all the waters in your cup first."

All the student managed to learn is the martial arts, not the principles & heart of it. Well if you all watched enough kung-fu films then you all can expect what will happen to the student. He got derailed from the path. He may acquire the martial arts skills from the master, but because his ways are different, he can no longer be used to further the development of the school.

"It's all about you ways, what you think, it's always your "I think", "I believe". When are you going to listen to our ways, our ideals, our plans?"

& then sure got interesting kung-fu fight in the end...negk ngek ngek

Moral of the story?...
