Sun Zi's Art of War is about winning. In fact, winning without a war. It begins with having the right attitudes. What are the winners' attitudes? Here is the mind-map from a deep understanding of the Art of War.The Winners' Attitudes mind-map:
The Winners' Attitudes
- Cautious Optimism – Yes, we can achieve
- We can win against giants
- Anything is Possible if we know howSun Zi gives us the secrets of winning
- We can win against giants
- Outside-In View – We adapt to the external world
- Read the Situations – Detect, Response or Create
- Prudence – Kiasuism – Foresee, Calculate, Decide
- Max Net-Returns @ Min Risks
- Win without War
- Calculation & Evidence-based decision making. 计 – 计划,计算
- Collect intelligence (hidden, intentions) and information
- Kiasuism – Murphy’ Law “if Anything Can Go Wrong, It Will.”So plan for the contingencies
- Foresee And Manage Threats First then Exploit The Opportunities
- Win By Strategy, Alliance, With War As the Last Resort
- Then Chose Wisely
- Only fight the war you can win
- Win Decisively & Quickly
- Max Net-Returns @ Min Risks
- Cool Head & Committed Heart – Agitation disables us to see, think & act rightly

- Go for fortune telling – But by evidence.
- Hope for the best / Optimistic – But by Calculation only.
- Go for glory – But choose to fight the defeated or easy-win foe.
- Go for revenge – biased view and wrong goals that bring defeats.
- Be angered which leads to irrationality and failure.

- Be tricked or be tempted by benefits, desires, disguises, distraction, hearsays, etc.
