Sun Tzu (孫子) explains that Heaven is the condition of day and night, heat and cold, times and seasons while the Earth is composed of distance, large and small, safe and danger, open land and narrow alley, and the possibility of life and death.
discipline is crucial not only to the success of a goal but also to ensure that no uncontrolled superiority arises and becomes your master's weapon.
When the enemy is calm, he is able to exhaust him.
When the enemy is full, he is able to starve him.
When the enemy is silent, he is able to make it move.
All this can be done because it appears at the points where the enemy must hasten to keep it.
That he can travel a distance without exhaustion, is because he follows a path where there are no enemies.
That he can take what he attacks, is because he only attacked the easiest place to be attacked.
That he must succeed in defending what he defends, is because he maintains a place to be attacked by the enemy in haste.
Therefore, against those skilled in attacking, the enemy does not know where to stand and against those skilled in defense, the enemy does not know where to strike.
How subtle and inconspicuous that he left no trace. How mysterious he was so unheard.
Thus, He overwhelmed the fate of his enemy. His attack would be unbearable if he plunged into the enemy's weakest points. He can not be defeated when pulling away because he moves agile.
Thus, if he wants to fight, the enemy is forced to fight even if he is safe in his shelter, this is because he attacks the position his enemy must defend.
If he does not want to fight, he can prevent the enemy from fighting even though his camp boundary is real, this is because he diverts the enemy from where he lives.
Sun Tzu teaches two levels of art of war, the level of strategy and tactical level.
Strategy is more of a foundation to win the competition, while the practical level, discuss how our response to different situations, our response how to take advantage of opportunities (opportunities) or threats that suddenly emerged. Thus, the strategy is more constant, consistent ground whatever the situation, while the tactics are more situational. There are three principles of strategy, namely commitment, observation and preparation.
So here it says, He who knows the other (the enemy) and knows himself, will not be defeated in a hundred battles. He who does not know the other (the enemy) but knows himself has a balanced opportunity to win or lose. He who does not know the other (the enemy) and himself tends to lose in every battle.
So fighting in a hundred battles and winning one hundred wins is not a reflection of the most powerful strategy. The ability to defeat enemies without battle at all is a reflection of the most powerful strategy.
An effective warlord defeats his enemy without fighting, capturing the enemy city without invading and winning a battle without a protracted war.
The best strategy is to win all the battles without fighting.

Sun Tzu said that the best fighters are those who are quite prepared, strong enough, and wise enough not to fight at all.
In the course of life of General Sun Tzu is told that the war strategy to achieve that victory can change second by second, in order to balance or anticipate the enemy's strategy change.
This strategy rests on the premise that the best way to win the war is to master the ability to read the mind of the enemy strategist. And whoever knows the way the enemy thinks and knows the points of weakness, it is certain he can win the strategy.
But each strategy must be risky. And Sun Tzu's role strategy is underscored by the fundamental principle that says, "Great victory can only be done by those who dare to take big risks".
This principle asserts that without the courage to take big risky tactics, then big victory is difficult to achieve. This is the essence of Sun Tzu's war strategy that synergizes a shrewd and mature war strategy with the courage to take big risks for great victory. Greetings of virtue
