3. Dear Leaders,
In the corridors of power, where decisions shape nations and destinies intertwine, your
role is both privilege and burden. As a coach to political leaders, I’ve witnessed the weight
you carry—the delicate balance between ambition and service, strategy and empathy.
In this concise collection, I offer distilled wisdom—a compass for your journey. These
words emerge from battlefields, chambers, and sacred spaces. They echo across time,
urging reflection and action.
War, whether waged on battlefields or within minds, demands cunning. As leaders, discern
when to wield the sword and when to extend the olive branch. Victory isn’t mere conquest;
it’s the preservation of peace. Your battleground isn’t land; it’s the hearts and minds of
citizens. Nurture dialogue, bridge divides, and build consensus. Remember: The greatest
victories are won through persuasion, not coercion. Religion, a potent force, can heal or
harm. Use its power wisely. Unite based on shared humanity, not divine commands. Seek
common ground, for therein lies lasting peace.
Beyond these quotes lies a tapestry—an intricate weave of leadership. It’s the unseen
threads—the moments of doubt, the midnight decisions—that define you. May these words
accompany you, like loyal advisors, as you navigate storms and sunsets.
Remember: You are not alone. Generations of leaders have walked this path. Their echoes
reverberate in your choices. May you lead with courage, compassion, and clarity.
With respect and anticipation,
Your Coach, Shehzaad Shams.
May these succinct insights resonate with you, dear leaders, as you shape history’s course.

6. Give your enemy the gift of
deceit that they are winning
the war. Strike only when
they are falling asleep,
exhausted after the
nightlong ‘victory’
celebrations.

human values versus verses
from religion, former will
triumph over latter.

11. It’s harder to defeat someone who fights to live
than someone who fights to die as a martyr. If
you’re fighting to become a martyr, you’ll
probably become one sooner than later, it’s still
a selfish act as it’s you alone who wants to go to
heaven as a martyr leaving behind your kins in
troubled waters. If you want to create heaven on
earth for the ones you love, you’ll fight to live to
see them smiling. Dying a martyr is overrated.

14. Don’t only think outside the box,
think outside the ‘boox’. If God

birth by default without the need
to learn to read, write and only
then to understand his message
to live a sacred life.

when your people have a place to

a purpose to find.

giving you a label as a ‘thing’, it’s likely that
his logics have ran dry or his intention or
ability to think has expired. Instead focus on
how one’s thoughts, words & actions are
making you feel, where they might lead you
both to and what might be there for him or
you to get in the end as a result.

all based on God’s command. As you
might be next to be divided by the
