I’ve already got the first four reagents right here. “One does not defeat the enemy solely by strength of arms. It is an old and valuable lesson, too often forgotten.” – Gaichu One must turn one’s own weaknesses into strengths.

Hone in on what comes naturally and minimize any gaps in your knowledge or work ethic.
