But at a certain point, it becomes less about knowing the rules and knowing yourself.  That knowledge is deeply rooted, and fundamentally connected to others’ behavior; it makes the reasoning behind “the rules” readily apparent. When you continue expanding…

    It’s better to direct the flow while we can, rather than wait for overwhelming pressure to build up and force it into the right direction. That way we can ride the currents.  If we constantly procrastinate, we risk drowning. Musings, Volume 1, available on Amazon Kindle:  Musings, Volume 1 Get Echo Vol. 1 on Kindle here:  Vol. 1…

    Use discipline and critical thinking. You can gain time to gain options to gain dominance and then you’ll be in a position to exercise mercy and ethics.

    If you can’t dominate the problem, then dominate the opportunity to learn from it.  Articulate exactly how you failed, what you’ll do differently next time, and get to work.
