Publisher's summary

Embark on a journey of strategic mastery with "Modern Art of War: Gift to my 7-year-old self" by Yaser Rashidi. This book is not just about chess; it's a blueprint for success in both chess and life. Through engaging storytelling and insightful lessons, Yaser shares the principles he learned as an adult but wishes he had known earlier.

In this book, you'll discover:

- The winning mentality of a chess master, distilled into practical rules for success.

- How to think strategically, making sound decisions that lead to victory.

- The importance of initiative and positional advantage over materialistic thinking.

- Real-life examples that illustrate the parallels between chess strategies and everyday life.

The book is divided into two parts: the first part consists of 14 chapters that detail the winning mentality, while the second part (Appendix) demonstrates these principles in action through chess examples.

Key lessons from the book include:

- Strategic Thinking Over Tactics: Success in chess is not about who can think more moves ahead, but about making sound decisions quickly and accurately.

- Strategic Use of Resources: Manage your time wisely, reserving most of it for the endgame by playing quickly and standardly in the opening and middle game.

- Keep the Tension: Don't release tension too soon; only engage in fights or exchanges when it clearly benefits you.

- Antifragility Mindset: Always be relentless, even when behind, and look for weaknesses in your opponent's position.

"Modern Art of War" is not just a chess book; it's a mindset shift that can help you win in all aspects of life. Don't miss out on this opportunity to sharpen your strategic thinking and unlock your full potential.
