The Thought For The Day: Value Oriented
Thursday, June 18, 2009
Inspiration: “Price is what you pay. Value is what you get” Warren Buffet.
Be: (positive confession) I Am Value Oriented.
Do: (first steps) Today, stop looking for the cheapest price and start searching for the best value. Cheap is expensive is an axiom we all would do well to live by. Whether you are purchasing a new car, hiring a new employee, or considering what you are going to eat for lunch today instead of asking yourself the question what is the “price” of this item instead determine what it’s “cost” which would include the price you pay today plus any future expenses related to that purchase. (Ex. Maybe that $1 cheeseburger is cheaper than that $8 salad NOW, but waht about when you add in the medical expenses due to high cholesterol later?)
Have: (making dreams reality) As I learn to invest in quality I may not get the cheapest price today but I’ll save myself a lot more heartache and have more disposable income in the days ahead.
Be, Do, and Have the Best Day of your Life! God Bless You!
Never be afraid to purchase quality. Just the opposite, be very wary of today’s special or “good deal”. It is good for somebody but probably not you. A good price will fade quickly when you are stuck with bad service or poor quality.
