Many people may say to you: to be successful, you need to have fire in the belly. You need to be hungry.
So people, maybe you, beat yourself into a feeding frenzy, and set out to conquer the world.
Your mother said: don’t go food shopping when you are hungry. Why? Because when your belly calls the shot, your higher faculties take leave of absence, and you’ll make horrible decisions. You’ll buy everything you should not eat, and enough food for ten. I have done it… horrid.
It is when the tail wags the dog.
