A Wise Person Profits

“Wise men profit more from tools, than fools from wise men;

for the wise men shun the mistakes of fools,

but the fools do not imitate success of the wise men.”

Cato the Elder (234BC – 149 BC)

As I see it. . . . . . . .

A wise person profits . . . .

A wise person will use all of the tools required for success . . . . and profit from those tools. A fool does not use the tools they have.

A wise person will learn from their mistakes and will continually improve as a result of their mistake. The fool continues to make the same mistakes . . . . and complaints. 

A wise person succeeds . . . . and the fools will not learn from wise person or their actions. 

Be the wise person . . . . and lead the way.

A wise person profits . . . . . from taking action and using all of their tools to succeed.
