Tips I learnt from a thief

• A thief strikes with lightening boldness. He does not brag about his time of execution. He plans his moves and surprises you with its outcome.
• A thief is not careless or casual. He cannot afford to. He is careful, thorough and goal-getting. He does everything not only to get the object of his desire, but he does even more not to leave a trace that would lead to his being found out.
• A thief is an employer of appropriate and quality labour. He has an instinct for good hands. He is a great talent spotter.
• A thief is a good networker. He knows that he cannot achieve anything significant alone. As a stranger, give him few hours in the town square and he will be able to recruit a good thieving team.

It sounds strange, but his tips contain lessons for us in our business and private lives.
