Son's Square Law (translated)

Hidenori Itagaki · 3 highlights

  1. “Courage—Have Both the Courage to Fight and to Retreat The next “courage” means, needless to say, “courage.” Speaking of courage, what comes first to mind is the courage to fight bravely. It is the courage to confront something and move forward. However, Masayoshi Son points out the opposite, which is the “courage to retreat.” It is the courage to retreat quickly from dangerous situations, rather than being reckless.”

  2. “Masayoshi Son emphasizes the necessity of demonstrating the “courage to retreat” in times of crisis to prevent the collapse of families, companies, and nations, acknowledging the difficulty of “retreating requires ten times the courage.””
