Mark Bezos: A life lesson from a volunteer firefighter

image

Mark Bezos is a assistant captain of a volunteer fire company. He explains to us his first fire. He was the second of the scene, he had to find the captain. He founded next to the homeowner who was wearing barefoot and pajamas. The first of the scene saved the homeowner's dog. The captain say to Mark that he had to enter in the house and got a pair of shoes. He did. A few weeks later he received thanks from the homeowner.

I like from the video one sentence: Not every day is going to offer us a chance to save somebody's life, but every day offers us an opportunity to affect one.
This sentence makes you realize that you have to live every day like as if it were the last because you have to enjoy the day.

Finally he say that all of things that he did like a volunteer, he learn that all are important. Bezos say an advice: Don't wait to earn the first million to make a difference in somebody's life. If you have something to give, give it now.
