“Always carry a brick in your briefcase.
You’ll never need it —
but people will respect you.”
The Sage has never trusted a man with an empty briefcase. Or a woman with a suspiciously light satchel. Why? Because mystery weighs something.
That’s why he recommends carrying a brick. Just one. It doesn’t matter what kind. Red, yellow, artisanal — choose your brick like you’d choose a wand in a budget wizard shop.
You’ll never use it. That’s not the point. But should anyone ask, you can pause… look them in the eye… and say, “I prefer to be prepared.”
Suddenly, you are the enigma. The wild card. The person who might just build a tiny patio at a moment’s notice.
The Sage reminds us: confidence is 60% posture and 40% masonry.
