The first thing my father told me when he taught me how to drive was, ‘There are three golden rules of good driving. Anticipation. Anticipation. Anticipation.’ He kept repeating it until I could utter it even in my sleep. Anticipation. Anticipation. Anticipation. It echoed in my head like a chant. Anticipation. Anticipation. Anticipation. My father had said, ‘Learn to anticipate. The power of anticipation is what distinguishes a good driver from a bad one.’

My darling father, you devious you! You said you’d teach me how to drive a car but you actually taught me how to drive all successes in life.

Anticipation. Anticipation. Anticipation.
