Remember the movie The Wolf of Wall Street?

Jordan Belfort wanted all his employees (including us, the cold callers) to read Sun Tzu's The Art Of War.

Let's start this 1st #threadcast by discussing the 1st chapter:

Laying Plans

Sort:  

The art of war, then, is governed by five constant factors, to be taken into account in one's deliberations, when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field.

It is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence it is a subject of inquiry which can on no account be neglected.

That's an obvious one, maybe a little dramatic for everyday life... but again this book is annimportant read

Sun Tzu said: The art of war is of vital importance to the State.

This can be applied to any aspect of life. Replace "state" with anything you want and you will find a reason why it is important

These are: The Moral Law, Heaven, Earth, The Commander, Method and discipline.

The MORAL LAW causes the people to be in complete accord with their ruler, so that they will follow him regardless of their lives, undismayed by any danger.
