The finest software cannot save
A worker ignorant of the craft;
It only makes the error swift
And prints it neatly in a draft.
Know every instrument you use,
Its limits, risks, and proper range;
The tool should serve informed intent,
Not hide incompetence as change.
A polished wrench in foolish hands
May strip the bolt it meant to turn;
Before commanding better tools,
Command the principles you learn.
From the collection: “A Modern Almanac of Leadership”
