A confrontation that doesn’t need to happen, shouldn’t happen. Suffering, discomfort, worry—these things take courage to endure. But wisdom and compassion obligate us not just to avoid them when unnecessary but to try to protect others from them too. That’s why heroes fight just as hard to prevent a conflict as they do inside the rare conflict they find themselves in.

Anything that causes you to overreact or underreact can control you, and often does. Responding inappropriately to your e-mail, your thoughts about what you need to do, your children, or your boss will lead to less effective results than you’d like. Most people give either more or less attention to things than they deserve, simply because they don’t operate with a mind like water.

Choosing the right playing field is the first mission-critical decision you’ll make when building a business from scratch.
