✦ MADE SIMPLE

Or think about a king who's about to go to war with another king — wouldn't he sit down first and figure out if his 10,000 soldiers can actually handle the other guy's 20,000? Like, he's gotta be real about his chances before he makes that move.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Count the cost before you commit — even kings do the math first.
