Warrior wisdom

Resiliency is in our nature but it is our ego that shrouds us from the truth about ourselves and the power we hold within. It has been said numerous times through history don't let your emotions cloud your judgement and learn to speak less & you'll live to be a little happier. Point is don't give up, learn to love your self in the process and most importantly stand strong by your beliefs and watch the world work in your favor. - Jerlin The Madd

“When young men seek to be like you, when lazy men resent you, when powerful men look over their shoulder at you, when cowardly men plot behind your back, when corrupt men wish you were gone and evil men want you dead… Only then will you have done your share.” –Phil Messina

You may think you are winning because you won the battle, but I promise, I will win the war! Those who lack of wisdom always gloat over winning a battle, but forget that winning a battle is not the same thing as winning the war. This is especially true for those who lack character, honor or integrity. These are the people who like to run their mouths, brag, and insult others, especially if they think they have won something. They never stop to consider that maybe they were allowed to win a battle in order to maneuver them into an unwinnable situation, or that the battle they think they won was only an illusion, and that they did not really win the battle at all. Consider this example. You are leaving a bar or a restaurant and some drunk thug starts mouthing off to you and threatening to kick your ass. You simply state that you don't want trouble and walk away while he is laughing, cursing you, and calling you a coward and a loser. This drunken idiot thinks he got the best of you. He starts loudly bragging to his friends how he made you run away and how he would about to kick your ass. He has no clue that you completely defeated him, achieved your objective, and left him looking like a fool. This is an example of the art of winning without fighting. Your objective was to safely leave the restaurant or bar and go home, which you easily achieved. This drunk threw a roadblock in your way, but you simple sidestepped it and when on about your business, leaving him to look foolish in front of his buddies and everyone else. You won and he was not even intelligent enough to know that you defeated him. Then there are those who have managed to land a blow against you in one way or another, and they think they have defeated you. They never stop to consider that they only fired the first shot, and that you haven’t even begun to fight yet. They won a small battle, but they have no clue about the shock and awe you are about to rain down on them. Individual battles may or may not be important; the important thing is that you win the war, not every battle. Just as in the game of chess, it is sometimes important to appear to make a bad move, in order to set your enemy up for checkmate. Be willing to give up a pawn in order to take your enemy’s king! Many times you can defeat this enemy without him ever knowing he has been defeated. He will simply be left dumbfounded, knowing that everything just went to hell for him, but having no clue why. These are the best victories – winning without him even knowing he has been defeated or how it happened. He only knows that his victory has been stolen from him somehow. Also, never forget that you are not defeated until you decide to give up the fight. If someone wins a battle and thinks they have defeated you, let them believe it. While he gloats over his victory, plan your counter attack. While he toasts with a victory drink and a cigar, set your plan in action and pull the rug out from under him when he least expects it. Leave him reeling, as he tries to figure out what went wrong and how you walked away the victor in the end! Never give up because your enemy has won a battle or has landed a blow! You have to look at life as a game, and the game is not over until you say it is. Let your enemies think they are winning, but always be determined that you will win in the end. Good strategy always wins in the end. Warrior up! Bohdi Sanders ~ author of Defensive Living: The Other Side of Self-Defense available on Amazon at: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009EF7U8M.

Simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures. Simple in actions and thoughts, you return to the source of being. Patient with both friends and enemies, you accord with the way things are. Compassionate toward yourself, you reconcile all beings in the world.  ― Lao Tzu
