“By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established; 4 through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures. 5 The wise prevail through great power, and those who have knowledge muster their strength. 6 Surely you need guidance to wage war, and victory is won through many advisers.”
Business advice: A cottager and his wife had a hen that laid a golden egg every day. They supposed that the hen must contain a great lump of gold within it, and in order to get the gold they killed it. Having done so, they found to their surprise that the hen differed, in no respect from the other hens. The foolish pair, thus hoping to become rich all at once, deprived themselves, of the gain, of which they were assured day by day.”
Your personal philosophy is the major determining factor in how your life works out. Each person’s personal philosophy is the set of the sail. The winds of circumstances blow on us all, yet we all don’t arrive at the same destination. What guides us to the different destinations is the way in which we have chosen to set our sail. That is, the way in which each person thinks is the major difference as to where he or she arrives.
Most of us thought that circumstances determined how a person’s life turned out, however, most people are where they are because of their personal philosophy.
