Have you ever heard the phrase “The most dangerous person in the room is the one who’s least predictable”. probably not. Wherever you go in this world people will never try to stop reading you, it’s the same for you, we tend to understand people who are easier to read and we have no respect for those who are predictable and easy to read because we know exactly what their next move is.Human are social beings with a particular habits each individual has. We are desperate to see familiarity in others people action, so it gives us a sense of control over in other’s people behaviour. Be the man nobody understand, and no one will underestimate you, the behavior with no consistency will make you mysterious. and they will wear themselves out trying to observe you.if you are predictable it gives people the illusion of being in control.

THE THREE KINGDOMS

During china’s three kingdom period, the great Emperor of Shu Han dynasty Zhuge liang was in command of the military. He was considered as the most accomplished strategist of his era, at some point he has been often compared to SUN TZU the author of the book THE ART OF WAR . He was not just an Emperor he was also a writer and an engineer not to mention he is one of the greatest strategist of his era, his cleverness was how he can trick the great General SIMA YI. The emperor Zhuge liang send off his vast army to a distance camp while he was at rest in a small town with only a few hundred men with him. Unexpected news came, the scouts were spotting a large number of army lead by General SIMA YI were heading towards the town at least a hundred fifty thousand troops, it was hopeless for Emperor Liang to win an army which is a thousand against one. But the wise Emperor was never in feared he knows how to stay calm in such a situation. Eventually he knows exactly what to do, emperor zhuge liang immediately command his few army to take down their banners and flags and open the town gates and hide, they thought he was mad to open the gates for the enimies. But he did something more crazy he sat on the most visible spot on the town wall wearing a robe and starting to play music, a few moments later a vast army approach the town gates but emperor zhuge liang pretends not to notice them and continue playing when the amry reach the wall at the front was Sima yi who instantly recognize the man playing the music with unguarded walls and opened door, the vast army attempt to entered the unguarded town but Sima Yi refuse, he thought it was a trap because he knew his enemy was a clever man and Sima Yi don’t want his army to walk into trap. so, He immediately retreat his army and headed the other way.

The Emperor Zhuge liang was knows as the sleeping dragon General Sima Yi met him on battle field many times and fail to defeat him many times. Zhuge lian has a high reputatipon on, The cleverest man in china. Sima Yi knew this and he know Liang wasn’t stupid enough to stand on the town wall without a building a trap and this make SIMA YI doubt himself and and he alo know Liang is unpredictable man and can pull out surprise tactics at any time and any moments. :Liang action tell him “I dare you to walk into my traps’’ without fear he was sitting there playing his music and alone. Sima Yi can’t figure out what Liang is upto so this gives Emperor ZHUGE LIANG a higher advantange and won the battle without a single drop of blood.
