Back to The Art of War You don’t win the battle “Head On”
You win the battle by coming over
At night time, when the enemy is asleep.
Then you take them all as hostages.
This way you neither lose any of your troups,
Nor of your enemy’s.
How we can use this in our Exercise: Do not overcome objections
Just Give People What They Want
