The Art of Manliness

NOTE

Embrace Courage Over Scarcity

To succeed, especially in competitive environments like poker, one must demonstrate courage and a willingness to take calculated risks. Successful individuals, like Maria Ho, challenge societal expectations and navigate obstacles with confidence. They engage fully in their pursuits, utilizing skills such as reading people and engaging effectively in conversation, even under pressure. While self-awareness is crucial to mitigate the dangers of overconfidence, it is the readiness to make decisions with a positive expected value that can lead to long-term success. Despite living in an age of abundance, many still succumb to a scarcity mindset, which can lead to overly cautious choices that ultimately limit their potential.
