Gold Dragon in a Storm
If you fail to take advantage of your
enemies’ collapse, they may recover.
Miyamoto Musashi

Your enemies should be dealt with strategically, not emotionally, especially in today’s world. Dealing with your enemies the old ways will only cause you more problems in today’s politically correct atmosphere. Self-defense includes everything; that means that you must be wise in how you fight back to defeat your enemies.

First, whenever possible, develop patience when it comes to your enemies. You don’t have take them down immediately. Avenging a wrong is a dish best served cold. Relax and let them squirm, nervously wondering when you will balance the account. This not only causes your enemy stress, sleepless nights, and keeps him on edge, but cost you absolutely nothing and takes no effort, other than patience.

You pick the time, the place, and the way that you destroy your enemy. Many times, while you sit back and allow him to wait nervously, your enemy will make mistakes and collapse on his on. His stress and impatience causes him to be careless and make mistakes. That is when you strike; that is when you put your strategy in motion!

Your enemy will always let his guard down sooner or later. Make sure that when that time comes, you take advantage of it, strategically putting the nails in his coffin once and for all. And the best thing about it is that many times, you can do this without him ever seeing it coming or even knowing what happened. This is the strategy of winning without fighting.
