Shownotes Transcript

Have you ever wondered why some people just always seem to unphased by challenges, undeterred by difficulties, and have an unconquerable attitude? Have you ever wondered how to develop that within yourself or if it was even possible for you? If so, then this is for you!

In this episode, I discuss Sunzi's (Sun Tzu's) top priority for winning the battles of life, four principles for becoming unconquerable. They are:

  1. Top Priority: First become unconquerable 先為不可勝 -- Develop an unconquerable mindset and belief system. 

  2. Becoming unconquerable resides within ourselves – not anyone else 不可勝在己.

  3. The Opportunity to Conquer Lies Without – Watch, Work, & Wait for the Opportune Moment 可勝在敵, 待敵之可勝.

  4. Manifest our Future: Understand how to overcome our (inner) enemies even before we have done so 勝可知, 而不可為.

 

With insights from Seneca the Younger, Benjamin Disraeli, Roy D. Chapin Jr., and Abigail G. Manning as guides, it is time to raise the bar on our beliefs, let our past refine us and our potential define us, make the decision to become unconquerable, and live from the place of our profound power and purpose!
