Therefore, only when you take good care of the goose can you get golden eggs. Conversely, if we “only take care of the goose with no aim toward the golden eggs,” we can feed neither ourselves nor the goose. If we “focus on golden eggs and neglect the goose,” we will lose both the goose and the eggs. In the above fable, what is produced is the golden eggs, and production capacity, namely, the producing asset or capacity to produce, is the goose that lays golden eggs. The farmer has ruined everything for himself. The goose is dead, so there’s no way he can get another golden egg. To his surprise, there are no golden eggs inside the goose. However, the greedy farmer becomes unsatisfied with only one golden egg per day, so he kills the goose, hoping to take out all of the golden eggs from it. Have you heard of the fable about the goose and the golden egg? A farmer has a goose that can lay golden eggs, and he soon becomes fabulously rich. P stands for production, and PC stands for production capacity. Perhaps you are wondering: what is high effectiveness? High effectiveness refers to the balance between production and production capacity, which is referred as the P/PC balance in this book. The truth? This is because some of them have developed good habits of high effectiveness, which leads to a comfortable yet highly effective life. Why is that? Are they born with a higher IQ? However, there are some people around us who barely work overtime, but still do a great job. Despite working all day long and feeling exhausted at the end of the day, we can’t seem to get all the work done. Many of us have shared an experience of having so many things to do every day, and feeling that time is not enough. It’s mainly about how to become a highly effective person, and attain both success and happiness.
