What? All the things he based his laws on can be read in the public library. Read history, psychology, sociology, economics, and maybe some philosophy.

His lesson “ we are self absorbed and don’t pay attention to others” is one of the best lessons I have ever learned.

It’s been in the Bible since the beginning. The Bible talks about how self absorbed humans are.

Thank you Sir, we need your commentary on the Book of Strategy by Musashi, as you are unmatched in dissecting concepts in a way we understands.

Man, this is so good I click through 12 ads and that's not happening with any other material.

Thank you so much master 🙏

Great presentation Robert.

thank you robert.

Around 34minutes in I’m pretty sure his line of thought is Musashi’s Perception is strong and sight weak. In strategy it is important to see distant things as if they were close and to take a distanced view of close things. We can use this in construction, commerce, control, manipulation all sorts of ways warfare is fundamental to existence like truth and human nature. Use it just as musashi says and also in any other ways in life that you see fit. Know one thing know 10000 things. Makes you a better tradesman and grow as a human to think ahead of other trades and fulfill the quote! Musashi was awesome! I can use my knowledge of concreting and commercial plastering and know that I would be competent in a variety of other trades, I trade my plaster or cladding sheets for tiles and grout, same concept, know one thing know 10000 things, I can apply measure and cut to both strategy in war and work and relationships !!!

Of course I can see the concept you're trying to relate...yet still, it's also important to know and understand just how you go about applying and developing those skills / abilities. So that even though you may be very well versed in say, art, you cannot transfer accommodated overlap because, although it may apply to another situation, how it is being used can be radically different. IE, like words that sound similar but have different Meanings attached, or even phonetically the same but opposite ideas. Do I make sense? (Cents) Scents? Sentenceessses???

I have only watched this video now, and I'm glad that I did. I'll start with, the audience asking questions, they didn't follow your discussion about the book at all!!! You mentioned everything and explained about the roots of the 'strategy of war'...the only part that was picked is just the last part, sadly. I was trying to explain this theory to a friend of mine today about your theory, which is how to apply the 'art of war' in his life/marriage. His friends/wife always seems to be ahead of him, despite of her having this knowledge. The points you mentioned right at the beginning and examples you gave are a proper description of of modern warfare which people do not get at all. I salute you for that analysis and connection to a book written (Art of war') and how you brought it to daily life. It's hard for an ordinary mind to understand and relate, but very mind opening to the wise. Cheers 👍🏼👍🏼

Robert Green is a very important GURU in my life,since 2006 I am reading THE 33 STRATEGIES OF WAR among all his others,Chapter 9 The Counter attack strategy-I have used many times in my life with success,Every time I read parts of this amazing book,I get different meanings of the same that I read earlier,

Excellent point concerning protracted issue of war. The answer to why has to do with, in my opinion, had to do with lower management and in effective communication.

*Ultra Enlightening Beyond Description! 👁️💡👑*

The weapon with the ball is called a Kusarigama it’s a ninjitsu weapon. He defeated the first guy using two strategies “recon, lateral thinking / direct approach, close the distance between and the opponent using speed and surprise. He reposition when attacked and put that rest of Samurais in a fatal funnel. Musashi uses everything to fight you. Your personality, your timing , even your health if you limp if your slower with your right or left hand. Special forces teams use a lot of these techniques for humit. Win the battle before you have to fight it. This is why we need secure borders in the U.S.

I really enjoyed the critical dialogue with the audience member at the end.

growing up in a military family helped me think these exact ways.

The art of war is creative and structural. And all angles most be considered, whether political, social, economical. Powerful.

It was a good lecture tbh, I even had 2 or more discussions with myself and expanded them on paper and kept analyzing for hours.

Intresig fact about Haiti revolution was Polish soldiers participation on the Haitian side. Till today polish traces can be seen on the island. Village Cazale has descendants of surviving members of Napoleon's Polish Legionnaires[1] which were forced into combat by Napoleon but later joined the Haitian slaves during the Haitian Revolution. Some 400 to 500 of these Poles are believed to have settled in Haiti after the war.

Military strategy There is no choice , Only an illusion Of it Just carry out the orders.
