  1. IDEA 1

    Test before you trust

    Judge people as gold is tested: by conduct, character, background and behaviour in hard times. Words are cheap; patterns tell the truth.

  2. IDEA 2

    Keep plans to yourself

    Don't reveal what you intend to do. Guard your plans and let execution speak.

  3. IDEA 3

    Learning is a lasting friend

    Knowledge travels with you to foreign lands and protects you in difficult times, when wealth and friends may not.
