...... if you cant be replaced you cant be promoted!!!
Also, no-one is ever truly irreplaceable or essential to a business.
You are right, though, many people struggle to be irreplaceable and miss out on opportunities as a result.
I am struggling to see the spirituality aspect in all this, but then you usually hide your true meaning behind a row of dots ........
Another bad tendency in the work place is to try to keep your knowledge secret. My policy has always been to share my knowledge with my work mates as much as possible, that way we all benefit.

I am trying but you refuse to clarify, when I don't get it.
I'm amazed you agreed with me on this though!
I don't contradict you simply for the sake of contradicting you. When you say something I agree with, I have no problem with saying so. In this thread I agree with you completely and they are wise words you started the thread with.
A related saying is "a good employee works himself out of a job".

Thank you.
