Winning and Success as per Sun Tzu Art of War books

HOW ANDY DEFINES WINNING

1. Winning Without Fighting

  • Central to both books is the Sun Tzu philosophy of winning by strategy, not struggle.

  • Andy defines winning not as crushing your opponent, but as achieving your goals with the least resistance, often by:

    • Avoiding unnecessary battles

    • Positioning wisely

    • Using timing and leverage

    • Influencing through energy (e.g. love, clarity, calm)

“When you win without fighting, you win with grace — and you win again and again.”

This echoes Sun Tzu’s original wisdom:

“To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.”

2. Winning = Inner and Outer Harmony

  • In Sun Tzu Sales Secrets, Andy often ties winning to inner clarity and outer results.

  • It's not just about sales numbers — it’s about whether the win feels aligned with your purpose.

  • You’re truly winning only when you don’t lose yourself in the process.


🧭 HOW ANDY DEFINES SUCCESS

1. Success = Fulfillment + Alignment

  • Success isn’t just material wealth — it’s living with Purpose, Love, and Gratitude (PLG).

  • Andy often emphasizes:

    • Being in alignment with your true self

    • Doing meaningful work

    • Creating value without harming others

    • Building lasting relationships

“Success without inner peace is just noise.”

This PLG-centered view aligns with both Daoist philosophy and modern emotional intelligence.

2. Success Is Repeatable and Sustainable

  • Andy defines success as something you can sustain without burning out.

  • He rejects the hustle-for-success model, suggesting instead:

    • Use strategic thinking (Sun Tzu)

    • Flow with timing and energy (Yijing)

    • Lead with heart (SuperME)


💰 HOW THESE PHILOSOPHIES MAKE YOU RICH

  1. Strategic Wins → Business Growth

    • Winning without fighting saves resources, time, and energy.

    • You earn trust and referrals, not just transactions.

    • You attract clients and partners who resonate, not resist.

  2. PLG → Emotional Wealth

    • Purpose aligns your focus.

    • Love softens resistance.

    • Gratitude attracts abundance.

    • These create magnetic personal energy that leads to more opportunities and joyful success.


😊 HOW THESE PHILOSOPHIES MAKE YOU HAPPY

  • Because you're not “fighting life” anymore.

  • You stop chasing — you start aligning.

  • Your success has soul. Your wealth has meaning. Your wins feel natural.

  • You move from:

    Survival → Strategic → Soul-led

How I Became a Fortune Teller: Leveraging NLP, Fear and Greed, and Motivational Theories

Becoming a fortune teller wasn’t part of my childhood dreams. It started as an experiment, fueled by my curiosity about human behavior and the subtle forces that drive our decisions. Over time, what began as a study of psychology and human interaction evolved into an unexpected career—one where I use the tools of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), the primal drivers of fear and greed, and motivational theories to help people uncover their paths. The First Step: Understanding the Human Psyche I was always fascinated by why people do what they do. During my university years, I studied psychology, particularly the works of Abraham Maslow, B.F. Skinner, and Victor Vroom. Their theories provided insights into motivation, reinforcement, and decision-making. But I wanted to move beyond the academic realm and see how these theories worked in real life. Around this time, I discovered NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). This framework for understanding communication and behavior is based on the...

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp.  Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?"  All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot...
