It is reckoned that the more, the better. However, is that really the truth?

  There are a number of examples showing that sometimes you are more likely to succeed with less, Xiang Yu is one of them. In a barrier, he ordered their cooking pots crushed and their sailing ships burned so that his soldiers could not withdraw and they finally beat the enemy who was thought much stronger than them. As a wiser once put it, "Less is more". What we can possess in our life is limited. Therefore, it is impossible for us to preserve all our options thinking they might come in handy one day. We have to learn to distinguish between what just seems to work and what really enriches our lives with a view to discarding the former one bravely.

  Next time you meet with some options, tell yourself: less is more, and ask yourself: do I really need all of them?
