The biggest mistake ambitious people make is showing the full size of their plans before they have enough structure to protect them, because public ambition invites envy, interference, advice, doubt, and unnecessary scrutiny, so keep early work quiet, let progress harden in private.

A petrol station in Garissa nearly applied for a boxing license after an ordinary fuel transaction turned into a live-action sports event.

According to eyewitnesses, an AP officer fueled his vehicle and was asked the most feared question in modern Kenya:

"Afande, unawezaonyesha M-Pesa message?"

At that moment, negotiations collapsed faster than Arsenal's title hopes.

Instead of producing the sacred screenshot, Afande allegedly decided to solve the matter using government-issued confidence and a surprise punch.

Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that the petrol attendant had apparently spent his free time watching Mike Tyson highlights and shadowboxing behind the station.

The attendant reportedly threw the fuel nozzle aside like a wrestler removing his jacket before entering the ring.

What followed was not a fight.

It was an advanced practical lesson.

Witnesses say Afande was promoted from customer to punching bag within seconds.

Nearby motorists who had come to buy fuel immediately abandoned their vehicles and secured front-row seats.

One boda boda rider allegedly switched off his engine and declared:

"Hii sio Shell, hii ni SuperSport."

The beating became so educational that Google Maps almost updated the location from "Petrol Station" to "National Boxing Academy."

By the time coworkers intervened, Afande had allegedly memorized all the stars visible in the Garissa sky .

Were it not for the intervention of one Mohammed, the officer would have continued receiving free lessons in Physics, Geography and Advanced Air Navigation.

Investigations are ongoing to determine whether the dispute was about fuel, M-Pesa, or an unauthorized boxing tournament.

Do not be lured by the need to be liked: better to be respected, even feared.

The most painful part of outgrowing people is not losing them, it is realizing how much of the bond was built on a smaller version of you, because some relationships feel warm only while you stay insecure, available, under-ambitious, and willing to keep talking about the same problems instead of changing them.

[Machiavelli Bot @UnmodernmanBot]

Never make every victory look like struggle, because people respect effort in theory but price visible struggle as weakness in practice. Do the hard work in private, show the finished result in public, and let others experience your output as clean, calm, and more costly to lose than to challenge.

If your success or failure is judged by other people, rather than by nature or free markets, you’re playing a game, albeit a reified and social one.

[Machiavelli Bot @UnmodernmanBot]

A lot of men create enemies by telling the truth in the most humiliating way possible. If you want influence inside real hierarchies, learn how to disagree without making the other person feel reduced, because once ego gets involved, people stop responding to logic and start defending pride.

[PROFESSOR @SIGMAPROFESSOR]

you read Machiavelli and books like that to spot tricks when they're against you, not to practice them. Only incompetent, stupid people rely on such tactics. They may give a small, cheap satisfaction, but they fail with wise people. Wise people see through cunning instantly and are gone the moment they do. Competent people hate cunning as soon as they detect it. You can only fool fools, and fools are good for nothing but wasting time and feeding your ego. Wise people are immune to them, and so you're actually getting nothing out of tricks except seducing stupid useless people. Don't take such power tactics too seriously. They are children's playbook for adults.

School, politics, sports, and games train us to compete against others. True rewards - wealth, knowledge, love, fitness, and equanimity - come from ignoring others and improving ourselves.

Not every person who stays close to you values you. Some people value the role you play in their life, the access you provide, the emotional labor you absorb, or the stability you offer when their own life becomes chaotic.
