Footing is unsure, the stench oppressive, and the water stagnant. Poisonous spiders, venomous snakes, and loathsome rats compete for food and dominion. It's a depressing, repugnant place filled with repulsive conditions. Now, imagine the gradual transformation of that murky swamp into a magnificent oasis. See the swamp being drained of the old water.
Fresh water is introduced from natural springs and then channeled with inlets and outlets.
You see beautiful new vegetation, trees, lagoons. Finally, the swamp becomes a true oasis shaded from the sun under a canopy of trees, with clear pools of water that is pure enough to drink. The oasis is now an attractive place to rest and to work and to relate with others. If you were to describe it in quality terms, you would say that it was beautiful, lovely, excellent, attractive, enchanting, resplendent, magnificent, splendorous, peaceful. You would save big bucks by increasing span of control and tapping into the energies and talents of people.
