Have you heard the story of "David & Goliath"?

David was a shepherd boy who spent his life fighting wolves that came for his sheep. He would take the stone and sling it and chase them away. When the moment came to face Goliath, he did not know why he stepped forward. He just believed. Everyone else looked at his resume and saw a boy who had never been in a war. They missed the wolves. The biggest breakthroughs often come from a lifetime of preparation that looks, from the outside, like something completely different. David had been training his whole life. No one could see it because they were looking at the wrong evidence. The person who understands how preparation compounds never looks at surface credentials to assess readiness.
