“The hands of Zerubbab el have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it… ” – Zechariah 4:9
Your value increases when you can bring projects to a close. To the inexperienced, this point may seem even frivolous. But I have employed different people, assigned them to various projects, and found them unable to conclude just the final little part. Some people are able to start projects and carry them for a good distance. Amazingly, they are not able to conclude on their project even though they have come ninety per cent of the way. The last ten per cent of every project is a crucial final piece.
Hope deferred makes the heart sick; when the hope of accomplished task is dashed repeatedly, the heart of the leader is sickened. A beautiful car, without one of its tyres, is the same as not having a car because a car with three tyres cannot be driven. Many people do not realize that one little uncompleted segment neutralizes everything else. Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith. Some people are authors of things but not finishers. Your value greatly multiplies when you can finish what you have begun.

Your value increases when you can accomplish tasks with speed. It is a pleasure to have a fast and reliable worker. I have had workers who accomplish tasks at different speeds. I prefer to work with people who bring projects to a close quickly. In fact, the value of someone who can rapidly conclude projects is very high. I place a high premium on speed because delays are expensive and often lead to the cancellation of the original vision.
