<p>There are 4 main factors in strategy.</p>
<p>To know them all is the pinnacle of success.</p>
<p>Right Information &#8211; information is the key to strategy, and having the right information is like life and death for rumors, gossips and the false can cover up the truth.</p>
<p>Right Place &#8211; the right place is the right location for the strategy to occur. Elements make up the majority, and location is the key to it all.</p>
<p>Right People &#8211; only certain people are qualified to initiate the strategy , and these people will be the initiator through psychological speculation and manipulation.</p>
<p>Right Time &#8211; the changes of time can spoil everything, so having the right timing is crucial to harvesting ripe fruits. Time waits for no one, so calculating the right season is critical.</p>
