A Man’s Word Is Worth More Than Any Contract
Your word must be more valuable than any contract. Reputation and respect are the pillars of a good business.

There is more danger in a righteous man who has risen against the injustices of the world than in a hundred wrongdoers. The wrath of the just is like a dam that, after being filled drop by drop, bursts with devastating force.
Punctuality in commitments, honoring every word given, repaying a debt no matter how small — it’s in these small details that the greatness of a man is revealed.
Just like the ancient Italians, treat those who show you courtesy and respect ten times better, and those who treat you with arrogance, intimidation, or offense a hundred times worse. People treat us only in the way we allow ourselves to be treated. In business, respect is worth more than any persuasion. Cunning may bring profit, but courtesy builds lasting bonds. Profit without honor is not truly an advantage.
Sooner or later, every man will sit down to a banquet of consequences served by his own choices. His main course will either be pride or regret.
A woman who understands you may accept you out of pity, but the one who admires you will follow you to the end with pride. The woman who truly admires you sees value in your battles, not just in your victories.
Your woman is not your therapist. Every time you whine, complain about life, or expose your vulnerabilities, she will lose the respect and admiration she has for you. Solve your problems like a man and do not bring worries and insecurities into your family.
