5 Tips to Resolve Conflicts | Sun Tzu and The Art of War

The Art of War is a classic text that has survived throughout history for it’s incredible level of applicability. People have been able to apply these concepts in the world of business, psychology, philosophy, and spirituality. This video attempts to stick more closely to the text by focusing on the issue of conflict, however, it tries to look at the issue of conflict resolution from a modern lens. Ending conflicts quickly, being prepared, knowing your enemy, fighting like water, and using deception are just a handful of tips that can be applied in a modern setting.

You're hitting way above your weight in terms of subscriber count. Your ability to explain concepts and especially to generalize them for modern application is like, really really good. The overall production of the videos is too. I think you also take away the bitter taste that studying these types of things in an academic setting often can bring. You'll join the big leagues soon enough, I can feel it in my bones. :)

I found your channel when trying to find a summary of The Will to Believe after procrastinating on my Intro final. I've since gone through most of your videos, and you do a good job explaining the ideas in an informational and interesting way

Would have never considered "The Art of War" to be applicable in this way, but you do make a compelling argument!

Have you ever thought of covering "The Book of Five Rings" by Miyamoto Musashi? There are quite a good amount of inspirational quotes that I find helpful in my daily life.

Your voice sounds really really really familiar - nice to see/hear you do different things.

Yes, kindergarten boundaries and advocating for darker dairy products makes war is a strange thing. Deception in war basically requires ignorance when possible. When the enemy thinks you’re a harmless hand biter and shady milk fan, the ignorance is thick. Distractions are deceptions for casual war. Henceforward ask yourself, “How does this battle at all concern the everyday price of milk?”

waait, I think in Maoyuu Maou Yuusha they said that warfare was profitable.
