“When you study success, you become a dreamer.
When you study failure, you become a victor.
When you study organisations, you become a mentor.
When you study management, you become a leader.

When you study nature, you become a scholar.
When you study people, you become a counselor.
When you study life, you become a thinker.
When you study God, you become a philosopher.

When you study magic, you become a sorcerer.
When you study stars, you become an astronomer.
When you study oracles, you become a seer.
When you study visions, you become a diviner.

When you study combat, you become a warrior.
When you study war, you become a commander.
When you study policy, you become a governor.
When you study politics, you become a ruler.

When you study nothing, you become a loser.
When you study little, you become a loafer.
When you study much, you become a winner.
When you study all, you become a master.”
