You must be prepared to lose everything to win!

Last week. I shared with my manager that I didn’t really need that plot of land….. It was optional to my survival. But in reality, I need it in the way a fish needs water or birds absolutely need the skies. So why did I mislead my manager? So that he has the right frame of mind to negotiate hard with the other side.

When one needs something real bad, one can only radiate desperation and yearning, but when that which is sought after is no longer the object of desire, then one remains perfectly neutral.
