Be Prepared

I think being prepared is one of the most important things we should be doing in an advanced society. Particularly when thinking in terms of competition. Whichever person prepares more for a battle will have a much better chance in winning. It's the same situation for any aspect of our lives, the more we prepare for a certain occasion the more the results will go according to our wishes. Being prepared requires a sort of "foresight", so that you can predict problems that might arise at a later time.
