Ceng Yun, Sun Tzu's Art of War: "The Prophet's detour plan won." There is straightness in the song and straightness in the song, which is the true meaning of dialectical method. In front of the valley is the peak, and after the difficulty is the victory. If you take a step back, you can take two steps, and then you can rise steadily along the spiral track. It is a general conclusion that the diameter is short, the winding path is far, the short circuit is fast and the long road is slow. However, if we combine personal efforts, the actual situation of the environment, advantages and disadvantages, and the realization of long-term goals, we must make a concrete analysis. Especially in confrontation and competition, both sides will interfere with each other's plans, delay each other's actions, delay each other's time and reduce each other's efficiency. So competitors should not fantasize about going straight.

On the issue of pedantry and straightness, we should strive to achieve: pedantry and straightness meet.

The road of modern management is still a straight and bumpy road, which faces flowers, sunshine, luck and success, as well as thorns, dark clouds, setbacks and failures. Understand the straightforward truth, in order to increase strategic vision and improve willpower, in order to look at the problem in the long run, correctly foresee the future, be brave in dealing with difficulties and treat achievements soberly. That is, to be a hero in prosperity and not to waver under pressure crisis.

People often admire the success of an entrepreneur and appreciate his great spirit, but they don't know his tenacious will and far-sighted vision in the recession, which deserves our deep thinking and study. He has several views: first, he regards recession as a stage in the development process. In his view, from prosperity to recession to prosperity is an objective process of economic development. As an entrepreneur, only when the recession is regarded as a stage of development can we overcome ourselves psychologically, overcome negative emotions, adopt a positive attitude in action, make scientific decisions in time, seek survival and development in the recession, turn disasters into blessings and open up a new situation in enterprise management.

A circuitous success

Smart entrepreneurs should not only be have it both ways and have it both ways, but also be good at understanding the truth that detours are the straight road, and they should be able to take detours as the straight road and enrich their business skills. There is a passage in Sun Tzu's The Art of War for the Army: "Any method of using troops is difficult for the army. Those who struggle in military struggle take pedantry as a straight line and suffering as a benefit. " Here, Sun Tzu gradually pointed out that the most difficult thing is to compete with the enemy for favorable winning conditions; The most difficult thing to compete for favorable winning conditions is how to achieve a straight goal through twists and turns and turn disadvantages into advantages. Sun Wu further pointed out that the implementation of the circuitous plan is "so circuitous, tempting it to benefit, future generations will do it, and ancestors will come." That is to deliberately detour, but also to lure opponents with small profits, so as to arrive at the destination later.

Specifically, the timely use of circuitous plans is to replace quick decisions with persistence. When the time and conditions are ripe, pay attention to the speed of the soldiers and make a quick decision; When the conditions are not met and the time is not ripe, we should take a long-term view, save strength in persistence, accumulate strength in persistence, and wait for fighters in persistence. As the saying goes, "haste makes waste", blindly seeking for speed regardless of conditions and opportunities will often cause unnecessary losses and delay the process of growth, growth and victory. If entrepreneurs want to learn from this allusion, they must learn to look to the future, grasp the present, and connect long plans with short arrangements well. For example, the competition of enterprises is ultimately the competition of talents, so improving the quality of employees is a necessary prerequisite to win the competition. However, the improvement of quality is not a matter of sowing today and harvesting tomorrow. The general rule is that the longer the training period, the greater the benefits of recycling. As the saying goes, "it takes ten years to plant trees, but it takes a hundred years to cultivate people."

The spatial expression of taking a detour as a straight line is to retreat and move in circles. Some enterprises only pay attention to the internal economy and ignore environmental protection. As a result, they not only harm the society, but also directly affect the production of enterprises, which is bound to repeat the road of "less, slower, worse and more expensive" in developed industrial countries. It can be seen that many times, some behaviors are circuitous and troublesome on the surface, but in fact they are straight and fast; What seems to be a retreat is actually to win greater progress.

The application of pedantry in means is to take it from giving and promote it from restraining. Zhuge Liang once captured Meng Huo seven times. On the surface, he prolonged the fighting time and consumed more physical strength. In fact, Meng Huo was completely convinced, never broke his word, and achieved a long-term victory and the greatest success.
