What is the difference for me to see between Red Cliff 1 and Red Cliff 2?
Red Cliff 1 :
- To show what type of the people you want
to be.
a. to give up?
b. to have a dream?
c. to do nothing?
d. to protect yourself?
e. to know your alliance / good friend?
f. how to know your alliance is good or bad? and etc...
Red Cliff 2 :
To exercise your strength that you are good at. To show the best of you could do to perform those two objectives.
In today's world, to show how you are good at, the true YOU. Ever wonder ZhugeLiang is calm at every conditions?
How confident is he on the Wind thing? 100%? ... how do you see that?
So scary actually, sometime I did see ZhugeLiang
behavior. The answer is what I name it as "the technique of learning", learning something through the root, understand it well, you would never regret that someday you might use it well.
