Cultivating someone isn’t that hard; the challenge lies in whether they’re willing to be cultivated.

Things You Must Understand When Entering Society:

We're here to get things done, not to debate principles. In war, the goal is victory—not making every soldier feel justified.

When you face difficulties, no matter how much pressure you're under, you must find a way to solve them rather than escape. Think about it: if you abandon ship the moment someone offers an easier path when things get tough, will you not encounter challenges in whatever you do next? And when that happens, will you flee again? Can anyone build a good life by running away?

Don't be swayed by petty gains. If small temptations easily sway you, it means you lack long-term vision. When you enter the market, will competitors handing you a few crumbs make you switch sides?

You can develop someone simply by stacking resources on them—but what right do you have to ask anyone to invest resources in you?
