📖 Diego's Big Decision
Diego had been at his company for five years when prices went up sharply and sales began to go down. Nobody understood what was going on, but everyone felt the stress.
His manager called an emergency meeting to go over the financial numbers. The results were worrying. Diego went through days of anxiety, reading reports and searching for solutions. His alarm went off at 5 AM every morning so he could start early.
Some coworkers told Diego to just go along with management's cost-cutting plan and wait. But Diego didn't want the problem to go away on its own — he wanted to solve it.
He spent days reviewing old contracts and found a better approach. He presented his idea to management, and it worked. That Friday, the whole team went out to dinner to celebrate.
"I'm glad I didn't go back to my old way of thinking," Diego said, smiling. "Sometimes you just have to push forward, even when things are hard."
