VICTORY, SUCCESS AND VIOLENCE
“Victory attained by violence is tantamount to defeat; for it is momentary”…Mahatma Gandhi
Having comparative advantage over others does not necessarily mean you are the best at what you do, using someone’s weakness as opportunity for exploitation does not make you better off either.
This is also not an incentive to flaunt your weakness; parading it as a general rule: everyone has a weakness” quoting scriptures to back your point.
Nevertheless, it is not your prerogative to be an opportunist, seeking to exploit people’s weaknesses.
Victory is essential. It is the brother to success, but it can be achieved without violence.
What then is violence?
Violence is not the entire use of force (coercion) to get what you desire like following the Machiavellian “end justifies the means”.
Violence also involves the use of intellectual aptness to disillusion your captive’s mind to achieve your goal.
Violence is intentional and targeted to destroy in order to achieve.
You can never pay for success by destroying someone else.
Victory is not a quantitative phenomenon rather a qualitative virtue.
Strive for it.
Be safe…DESIRE
