Chapter # 2 (The Achilles Heel)

This chapter talks about situations that we have in life and how we can face either positively or negatively whatever the result should always try to get a successful end to be someone in life.

Also by reading this chapter leaves me much teaching which is:

He who perseveres wins, always fight for what you want and what you will achieve. Never give up because if you do not you will be satisfied with your effort
