Only way to avoid repeated self-OODAing is to get rich. For every $1 million in net worth, subtract 1 cunning plan year and add it to cruise control year.

Weird but true: if you’re rich you don’t have to be cunning. It is sufficient to be smart. Strategery is for the underresourced. It’s like if you have the right tools and parts, repairs and maintenance are easy. You only have to get cunning and jugaad stuff if you don’t.
