Recently, a society in Pittsburgh has been sponsoring fish racing in which owner's are permitted to do anything except disturb the water or other fish in order to get their fish to win. For most people the only time anything in government is remotely interesting is during an election year. This issue's Words of Wisdom puts in your hands a philosophical masterpiece constructed from my arduously developed beliefs about excelling throughout life. What follows are the four basic characteristics of superior people. I give these to you people because I believe you all are capable of meeting them.
Superior people learn quickly.
The more quickly you learn, the more knowledge you have. Superior people can recognize a situation. It doesn't take Einstein's brain and two pots of coffee to realize that if you recognize opportunities before they pass, you'll have an advantage over those people who don't. However, it does take a superior person to actually recognize those opportunities. Superior people have the ability to adapt quickly.
