Sun Tzu Art of Love


Let me start with a question: When was the last time you won someone’s heart — without fighting for it?

Most people think The Art of War is about battle, competition, and conflict.
But after studying and teaching it for over twenty years, I discovered something Sun Tzu never said directly —
That every true warrior wins through love, not aggression.

Years ago, when I was in sales, I tried to convince people.

I fought for every deal: more calls, more pressure, more follow-up.
One day, I lost my biggest client not because I did something wrong,
but because I didn’t understand something deeper.

Later I reread The Art of War, slowly, line by line, and one sentence struck me:

“The greatest victory is that which requires no battle.”

That’s when it hit me —
What Sun Tzu called strategy, I now call love in action.
Because real love, like real strategy, seeks harmony, not control.
It listens, understands, and positions itself so that both sides win.

That idea became the foundation of my two books:
📘 Win Without Fighting with Sun Tzu Art of War — how to lead, negotiate, and influence without pressure.
📙 Sun Tzu Sales Secrets — how to turn resistance into relationship, and competition into collaboration.

And recently, I wrote Love Intelligence: showing that the highest strategy of life and business is actually the strategy of love.

Think about it:
When you truly care for your audience, you win attention.
When you care for your client, you win loyalty.
When you care for your team, you win their hearts.

That’s Sun Tzu Art of Love
Win without fighting.
Persuade without pressure.
Influence without ego.

This is not soft. It’s smart.
It’s the strategy that builds lasting results — in business, in relationships, even in speaking.

So if you want to win more hearts in your speeches, your sales, or your leadership —

Take home these two books.

Each sells for S$35,
but for you, the two together are just S$39.90
because I believe knowledge shared with love should be affordable.

And to friends here who help speakers reach more stages, 
if you believe we need more heart-driven strategists in the world,
I’d be honored to bring The Sun Tzu Art of Love message to your audiences.

Because in the end, my friends,
the most powerful weapon is not the sword: it’s the heart that knows when not to use it.

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years.  Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself?  At least I have better discipline".  It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Head Bleeding when the Chair Falls

The Weight of Silence: What Were We Really Arguing About? My earliest memories are punctuated by the sound of shouting. In 1970, when I was barely 6 years old, I stood as a small witness to the fierce quarrels between my father and my late eldest brother Kah Yang (he passed away in 1971 at the age of 17). As I grew up, these contradictions became the soundtrack of our lives, usually centered around our family's shoe shop and clothing stalls in Chinatown. In the court of family opinion, the verdict was almost always the same: my father was "wrong." He was judged as a man who didn't fulfill his role, who wasn't "burdening" enough for the family’s success. But as I look back from the vantage point of 2026, I have to ask: Was that actually true? Let me finally put to rest what my father did right: the truths that were buried under decades of criticism: Unseen Labor: He worked grueling, long hours. I remember him hauling boxes of goods and equipment to set u...
