Greetings Dear Readers;
.
Hope you are well and your weather fine.
There are other ways of saying this Principle...such as 'Never let them know your weakness.' or 'Never let them know that you are under pressure.'....however none quite carry the impact of the Principle said this way....'Never let them see you sweat!'
Carry out the duty, the day, as if you are carrying a feather...as it were. Of course we are speaking metaphorically in both cases. The mental attitude of getting the job done without complaint...instead with a sense of purpose, which is different for everyone...the idea of turning this horse around from Negative to Positive.
A query...Why should we keep it to ourselves?...One thought might be the idea...of Self-Respect...just as you may have respect for someone else...in which case you probably do not spout their weaknesses to others.
Or another thought would be the idea of 'Putting one's best foot forward' as it is said sometimes...this is the principle said in a positive way.
Also...Keep in mind not everyone is thoughtful of others and will use any perceived weakness against you.
Life is interesting, is it not....Let's get ahead of the wave!
Thank you for visiting 'Principle of the Day'. ^__^

Principles are timeless truths as relevant today as they were yesterday and will be tomorrow.

Greetings @mnurhiver ,
Thank you for your kind compliment. ^__^
Cheers, Bleujay
You're welcome. Greetings to you too and have a nice day
There's also something called "sweat equity"
If you don't let them see you sweat, but you put in the work, eventually it will pay out - so long as there's no complaining, or boasting or entitlement. Even if there are wages paid, hard work and value is eventually compensated equal to it's value.
Greetings @ironshield ,
Interesting...never heard of it... ^__^
Makes sense though.
Thank you for dropping by.
Kind Regards to you and your good lady,
Cheers, Bleujay
Beautiful shot and such a powerful lens. Do you go out to the wild to take your flower pictures?
Also, is the drawing a reference of the pictures shots of the flowers

Greetings @josediccus ,
Very kind of you to drop by..and bearing gifts...thank you!
Appreciate your kind queries.
Bleujay does have some fine photographs from outdoors of Roses, however the clarity and the lighting are mostly achieved indoors in the Studio...using a sort of combination of natural lighting, indoor lighting until everything is just right to Bleujay's eye. Everything and anything can make a difference...time of day, position of the light etc.
So I would say to anyone interested....Keep taking pictures and experimenting....Study those who have written books on the subject...it will take what talent you bring to the table a long way.
The drawing should be of a rose to be sure...and of 'Madame Hardy' with her green eye...^__^ And now that you mention it ...I shall try to draw this rose...however the drawing in this post is of a White Pansy....illustrating hopefully the Principle.
These are taken with the lens of the iPad Pro Camera.
Appreciate hearing you enjoyed the 'Icing'.
Kind Regards, Bleujay
When we allow them to discover our weakness they take advantage of it, for example I allowed them to discover my weakness in this panel, my reputation that motivated me to keep working to see how it increases, and look, I continued on (68) and it seems that I will stay like this, it makes me laugh now hahahaha, matter overcome
What more example to demonstrate what you say in your post, ME.
But that will never happen again if it is safe, I learn quickly.
Greetings @lupega ,
Thank you for dropping by....sorry to hear that happened to you.
From what Bleujay understands about the 'Reputation' number....there is an exactness to it...it is not an arbitrary number. However, it does seem like it takes a long time to see any change.
Your statement does prompt a curiosity to find out more about what it takes increase that number. ^__^
Kind Regards, Bleujay
