“As you delineate the contours of your ambition, remain vigilant to the strengths and weaknesses of those who surround you. Friends and foes alike can be woven into your tapestry, either as allies to be cultivated or as obstacles to be overcome. Like a skilled chess player, anticipate the moves of your opponents, and prepare to outmaneuver them with foresight and guile.”
Quote by Kevin L. Michel
