It is impossible to secure justice from others. This complaint is heard more often than any other excuse that is usually made in attempting to explain failure.
It is an excuse, although not often intended as one. I sympathise with most of the people who make such an excuse for they are honest and sincere, and good workers. But, they are mistaken in thinking that they should be given just compensation providing they work well, lead in their work, and give service.
Justice is a factor of human relationship. Securing justice is not just the result of dealing with things or words. It depends upon your dealings with people, and how you manage those dealings.
If you handle or create things well, you have succeeded in handling or creating things. But, you may not receive just compensation if you do not know how to handle those with whom you deal, the people who work with you, the people who buy from you, or the general public to whom you serve.
Handling people is the last lap of the journey to justice. Sins of omission bring failure just as certainly as sins of commission. If you fail to develop the ability and capacity of handling people efficiently, in your effort to succeed, then you lose the last step that determines justice.
If you fail for this reason, do not blame others. Instead, start preparing yourself to become a leader in dealing with people, as well as a leader in handling things and using words. Then, just compensation will reward you. All things would disintegrate overnight if it were not so. Evil separates, disrupts, and destroys. Good unifies, binds, and holds things together.
Judge not the whole by a part, neither a part by the whole. Every effort brings its own just and full reward, but no more.
Each kind of service is paid in its own kind.
The nature of the compensation you receive depends upon the kind of service you provide. If you demand money for a service of friendship, you will be denied the money or lose the friendship. That is just. To secure justice, be just.
It is remarkable almost a mystical truth that your compensation increases rather than diminishes in proportion as you justly value the services of others as well as the services you render, and in proportion as you lead others to do the same. Seemingly more mysterious is the truth that the compensation of each person increases in proportion to its division on this basis. It is again the law of the loaves and fishes; when two people who are working together justly value each others services, there is harmony, greater cooperation, better and more work done, and a greater service rendered.
Then, the reward to be divided is so much increased that each receives a much greater amount than he would otherwise receive. The degree of compensation you should receive corresponds to the degree of service you render.
The reward of the leader is determined by the importance and difficulty of managing people. As a leader in dealing with things, you receive from three to ten dollars a day. As a leader in using words, you receive from five to fifty dollars a day. As an efficient leader in managing and directing people, you may receive from five thousand to one hundred thousand dollars a year.
Your just compensation greatly increases when, in leading people, the adaptation of your work helps leaders to train their subordinates to successfully handle the men under them. It is more difficult to manage people than it is to deal with things or to use words. You can do whatever you want with a thing, but it has no power of changing itself.
You can do whatever you want with a word spell it correctly or incorrectly, or place it where you please in a sentence but it has no power of changing itself or its position.
Your position in life and the justice you receive depends on how you secure the justice. If justice is the balance of certain activities between man and man, then action is the way of communicating to others the value of the service you render, and the best way of getting them to pay you a just compensation for that service. Talk will not secure justice; justice is a balance of action
Each means produces after its own kind! Words produce words! Action produces action! Since justice is a balance of action between man and man, then action is the means to be used to secure justice! The success of your demand for just compensation depends on your ability to persuade and convince others of your value.
If you have failed to obtain just compensation, you have failed because you have not used the right means of obtaining what is justly due you. The remedy is not finding fault not even finding fault with yourself! The remedy is the right use of the right means: using action instead of words to obtain justice.
It is easy to obtain justice if you live justice. Dare to value yourself and your works as they should be valued. Express your conviction by your posture and the action of your body. Talk little about obtaining justice; use words to convey information, but demand and secure justice by action by the activity of your work, by your manner in dealing with others, and by the postures of your body.
