When
meeting a force, do not meet it head-on. It is far easier to redirect it. Be
like the martial arts master who turns
to deflect the force; the general that outflanks his opposition. Fall back and
then make a counter offensive. Learn which battles to fight and learn when to
let things go. A good general does not plunge into every possible battle. A
good soldier is never violent. A good fighter is never angry.
