The man that has the sharpest knife is the one that will eat the meat. (Kiswahili)
It is not enough to have a knife; your knife must be very sharp. There are usually many people with knives in the world today but only few knives are sharp.
Your knife could be your level of intelligence, your talent, skills, knowledge, business idea, creativity, service, or just anything that can give you an edge over others. Endeavour to be the best in whatsoever you do. There is usually a reward (meat) for everything a man does in life. While many people are only feeding on bones, the smart ones feed on meat.
The friends you keep, the books you read, the movies you see, or whatever you easily allow into your mind are very vital in making or breaking your knife. Always use any opportunities you find around as an avenue to sharpen your knife. If a sharp mind mingles with other sharp minds, it becomes sharper.
So, whenever you desire the best from life, whenever you feel like being on top, whenever you are not satisfied with your current situation, always check if your knife is sharper than your competitors.
