Sun Tzu Art Of War: Live To Fight Another Day

Sun Tzu Art Of War: Live To Fight Another Day

Sun Tzu Art Of War philosophy is all about winning without fighting or winning the most profitable way.

Sometimes, you have to retreat and wait for another opportunity to fight.

You already plan and strategize, but things change. So you also have to change.

That's why there is this saying...

Live to fight another day.

To Sun Tzu, fighting and dying gloriously is a waste of talent and stupidity.

You have heard people saying,

"Fight to the end". 

"Fight for glory and honour"

Screw that!

These quotes are not the philosophy of the Art of War.

It would help if you only fought to the end when you have no choice.

Or else, 

You should retreat, recuperate, rebuild, replan, and fight again.

And to win many more battles to come.

That's the Art of War 

Why are there times you have to retreat?

It's because situations change in life, and sometimes, what you plan may not turn out how you expect.

The world is very dynamic, and change is constant.

If you cannot gain an advantage over your enemy, it is wise to take a step back and return to your temple to study and strategize another plan.

Sun Tzu mentioned in his Art of War treatise that one of the dangerous faults a General must not have is a delicacy of honor sensitive to shame. Being afraid of what people think of them. No face, disgrace, and embarrassment.

When it comes to business and investments, sometimes you should live and fight another day.

That's The Art Of War.
