The problem is perception. Why couldn't anyone out there “be the big fish?” Sadly, the vast majority see themselves as the smaller fish behaving with the herd mentality and swimming toward a deceiving light.

In my view, I'm the big fish; the light represents patience; and the school of small fish represents the many small but compounding accumulations of returns I receive for staying true to my “plan.”

“There are no facts — only interpretations.” ~ Friedrich Nietzsche

Keep up the good work…
