Next in importance to having a good aim is to recognize when

Summary

This quote emphasizes the significance of not only having a clear objective or goal (having a good aim) but also understanding the right timing and judgment to take action (recognizing when to pull the trigger). It suggests that while having a target is essential, knowing when to execute and make things happen is equally crucial. It serves as a reminder to exercise prudence and decision-making skills, as success depends not only on setting objectives but also on knowing the opportune moment to act upon them.
