The core of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" consists of three sentences:

The art of war is first not a method of fighting, but a method of not fighting;

Not the way to victory, but the way to invincibility;

It is not a method of fighting and winning, but a method of winning first and then fighting.

The common saying is that you will fight only when you can guarantee that you have a high probability of winning, otherwise you will not fight.

This is the same as how we invest and trade.
