Power

One must seek power, but to seek power one must know power.

Power is mastery over the self; the will to face adversity with strength of heart; the character to pursue necessary tedium; the courage to play the fool, for only by playing the fool can one truly shrug off pride, fear, the yearning for approval.

Care not for the approbation of others! Care only for the voice of truth! In this way, power will burst from your soul.
