Sun Tzu's Warrior's Rules -- for Winning without Conflict

In translation, Sun Tzu's The Art of War reads like a collection vague military aphorisms. In the original Chinese, it is a series of detailed competitive rules in the formulas of ancient Chinese science. The Warrior's Rule Book is an explanation of this system in today's terms of modern competition. Our Warrior's Rules make it easy to apply Sun Tzu's proven system to the challenges we all face ever day.

Our Decisions Matter

Sun Tzu teaches that our success depends on our individual decision-making in interacting with other people. These decisions depend on our training. Sadly, we are all educated to work with inannimate objects not as warriors working with other people, as producers not competitors. Because of this, most of us fall back upon our instictual "fight or flight" response when we are faced with interpersonal challenges. These instincts lead to destructive instead of productive decisions. Sun Tzu taught a new way for us to see competition.

A Vision of Success

Sun Tzu teaches the competition is not conflict between enemies. Competition means a comparison among alternative positions. While we can compare our position to those of others, what we should compare is our current position to our potential positions. Our positions are linked to the positions of others. We create our positions while evaluating their positions. They create their positions based on ours. This creates a dynamic environment of complemetary opposing relationships. To reach our goals in this adaptive process, we avoid costly conflict and instead look for openings to build positions.

For Every Type of Challenge

Sun Tzu teaches us how to make productive decisions in competitive situations. Our Warrior's Rule Book takes his concepts from their original context of ancient Chinese culture and military warfare and puts them into general terms that apply to modern competition. Each of the Rule Book's nine sections covers a different area of competitive skills.

On the Front-Lines.

We are all on the front-lines of dealing with a more competitive world. Our strategy rules are not just for occasional planning meetings. Warrior's Rules create a big-picture perspective about our competitive position and a set of tools for making better decisions about our external situation.

Train Gut Instincts.

Warrior's Rules are action. They are notcerebral intellectual analysis. Competitive situations are so complex and dynamic that we must rely on our gut reactions. Conscious thought is linear and limited. We consciously train to learn rules, but mastery of those rules makes better decision-making automatic.
