Sun-Tzu is the man
I decided to go on a blogger link expedition and I chanced upon this link from the saint. It is that of Sun-Tzu's art of war.I have read books on these since long ago, yet I never fail to get excited reading it again. It contains almost everything you need to and have to do to survive in the world, be it in life, your career, or in a game even. It is exactly just as as he keeps describing - about heaven and earth, and the elements.. yeah chinese philosopher's own. As a matter of fact, if you delve into chapter's 3 and 4 of it, it talks about strategy and tactics. That is probably among the most applicable. Most of his teachings on war are so frigging true that even Japanese companies apply it. Do you know that even Akio Morita, the late president of the Sony Corporation applies this philosophy? He's japanese - probably among the most innovative and visionary minds in the world. Even Bruce Lee, in his teachings of Jeet-Kun-Do, talks about "the art of fighting without fighting" - again a passage in The Art of War. It is next to murphy's law on my philosophies. For those of you who are feeling disappointed about what'cha wanna do in your life, you should read it. If you have read it, read it again. Your vigor will be refreshed.
To think someone back a long-time ago already knew what had to be done to survive in life, I wonder where most of us were when the one up there was giving philiosophy lessons.
