“The best of all is not to win every battle by force. The best of all is to make the enemy yield without fighting. So the highest of all military principles is to overcome the enemy by Strategy”
In 216 B. C, the Carthaginian general Hannibal encountered 72,000 Romans at a place called Cannae in southern Italy. His own army was 20000. Both armies were equally armed and trained.
However, if you look at the numbers alone, Hannibal should have surrendered or retreated and the Romans expected him to do so. He did not. He did the unexpected and surprised his opponent. He decided that the only way he could succeed was if he destroyed not just defeated the superior Roman army opposing him. Hence, he defined this as a clear objective and he was fully committed to accomplish this objective despite all odds against him.
There are many people who have set goals for themselves and at the slight of a small obstacle they will eventually give. Well you are not really to blame because it is simply because of the lack of strategy of being committed to a definite goal. Yes Yes Yes. The question is how do you apply it to your life and exams in practical terms.
There are 5 separate tactics involve.
1. Think through your goals until you can clearly define them to both yourself and those who must help you reach them.
2. Make a public commitment to the objectives or goals you have selected.
3. Hold fast to your commitment while promoting your goals and objectives at every opportunity.
4. Obstacles will inevitably appear along the way. Expect them and deal with them.
5. Always adjust your strategy and not your objectives.
The above work wonders just apply it to any of your exams and see how successful you will become in your quest in becoming chartered. Shalom
