“I’ve learned that the key to your job, Marshall, is client selection. You ‘qualify’ your clients to the point where you almost can’t fail. The deck is totally stacked in your favor.” It surprised me because he wasn’t talking about himself. He was turning the tables on me. Then he said something more profound. “I admire that kind of selectivity because that’s what I do here. If I have the right people around me, I’m fine. But if I have the wrong people, not even God can win with that hand.”
