| 47. They want you to be angry. |
|
Angry people make mistakes, they plunge in when they should stop and think. Don't get roped in, calm down and regroup. One wins a battle not through a mad rush, but by provoking one's opponent into the mad rush, that exposes their weakness, which is then exploited in one cold, merciless strike. Do not fall for the intimidation, or the provocation.
