You can give a fool a thousand intellects, but the only one he wants is yours," say an Arabic proverb. When the Warrior of light starts planting his garden, he notices that his neighbor is there spying. He likes to give advice on when to sow actions, when to fertilize thoughts and water conquests.
If the Warrior listens to what his neighbor is saying, he will end up creating something that is not his; the garden he is tending will be his neighbors idea.
But a true Warrior of Light knows that every garden has its own mysteries, which only the patient hand of the gardener can unravel. That is why he prefers to concentrate on the sun, the rain, and the seasons.
He knows that the fool who gives advise about someone elses garden is not tending to his own plants.
Warrior of Light (A Manual) - Paulo Coelho
