Sun Tzu - Greatest Rapper Alive

I’ve taken it upon myself to start studying the teachings of Sun Tzu.  I picked up a this Art of War Book and Card Deck set.  Pretty good stuff.  I study one card a day, and try to memorize it.  I’m hoping within 2-4 months I’ll have all the cards mastered, and ready to apply to day-to-day situations. 

Today’s lesson is as follows:

These are the victories of military lineage. 
They cannot be transmitted in advance. 

AKA - Victory depends on conditions that are always in flux.  The general must recognize a momentary advantage, capturing it as it arises.  Such victories cannot be set aside for future use, nor can they be taught.

Whats this mean to you? 

Go Nuts,
