PLAY THE PLAYER AN NOT THE CARDS
Ceteris paribus (all things being equal), all the choices you have in life even at a time may not be favourable, all odds may be against you, but here is one thing I've learnt from a poker game, a very strict rule "you do not play the cards you play the player" of course this does not mean you are not playing the cards. playing the player is just more important to focus on.
how does this apply? you must understand that the game and the player is constant while the card is variable in which case the cards represent your options in decision making and the player , in each case life, no matter what your option, choices are, life goes on. so you have to be smart enough to decipher the life around you, what is and what may be about it. the life around you is peculiar to you alone, though the options are the same, do not be surprised if we both pick the same option(card) but yet we have different result, the reason is clear, the players (life around) are different. learn to master the life around you , the options will then be just a compliment no matter what they are. in every decision you have to make , always remember that all you are trying to do is to beat what life threw at you. life is your competitor so learn to play the player and not the card.
