When you entertain a fool...

Ever hear the phrase "when you entertain a fool you become foolish."  Well I was sort of reminded of it this week.

Why would someone back down during one of the most challenging periods in their life?  Why would someone who so eloquently speaks and gets their point across during so many major events get hung up on words.

Sometimes it is apparent to argue with a fool you yourself become foolish.  I applaud an orator who can stand down during a heated debate when the other person uses their words to cut their own throat.

How would a leader look going toe-to-toe with someone who is bullying the conversation.

Sometimes people choose their battles wisely.  A smart person realizes they may lose some battles the ultimate is whether or not they lose the war.

The next month will probably be heated with division of  interests.  I encourage everyone to realize its not how you win that is important its how you play the game.

Game on!  I hope I will be updating this blog with why sometimes no fight at all leads to a win.  Sometimes you got to learn to just stand.
