Words by Sun Tzu — Ancient Chinese military strategist, author of The Art of War.

About this quote

This quote suggests that taking action creates momentum. When you act on a single chance, you open up new possibilities that were not visible before. Rather than waiting for the perfect set of circumstances, taking decisive steps expands your options. Progress comes through active engagement with the present moment rather than passive observation.

This line is traditionally attributed to Sun Tzu, the ancient Chinese strategist credited with writing The Art of War. While the sentiment reflects his tactical philosophy on momentum and initiative, the exact phrasing comes from modern English translations or paraphrases.

People often hang this in a home office or study to encourage prompt action and decisive thinking.

Attribution: generally credited to Sun Tzu; the exact source is not fully documented.
