One simple word of advice from career counselors and self help gurus is this: Don’t say what you are going to do. Do it and let the actions speak for yourself. People have little respect for boys who cry wolf.

It’s also why I ignore what politicians say and pay attention to what they do. It’s why I liked Trump so much.

I strongly agree with this statement.

The exceptions to that rule would be, when one is trying to 'flush the quarry', warn off the opponent, influence his movements, or try the case in the court of public opinion.

All viable tactics.

You have your counselors and gurus, I have my Bag Tzu.
