Avoid following in the footsteps of a great man
What happens first always seems better and more original than what comes after. If you replace a great man or have a famous father, you'll have to do twice as much as they did to shine brighter than them. Not to be lost in their shadow or trapped in a past that wasn't your doing: establish your own name and identity by changing course. Kill the dominating father, belittle his legacy, and conquer power with your own light.
