Respect Human Nature, Respect Interests

Do you want to be smart, hardworking, and grounded—really commit to something for a full decade? Absolutely.

Do you want to have high emotional intelligence, know how to navigate social dynamics, consider others' needs, adopt a seller's mindset, and build strong relationships with colleagues, leaders, and clients? Absolutely.

Do you want to respect human nature, respect incentives, earn others' trust so you become the person who can provide the highest-return key information, thereby building an intelligence network? Absolutely.

In reality, no matter your background or resources, you won't find 100% reliable information. And no matter how precise your analysis is, there will always be gaps you've missed.
