*********************************
"In
ancient days warriors made themselves unbeatable by constant practice.
Knowing they were not perfect, this constant training made them see how
vulnerable themselves and their enemies are."
"You should not
think of beating your enemy in ego boastful ways, but rather make them
feel the reality of extending their skills through the them."
"Warlords
who have mastered defense attack from hidden places and assure their
own success. If you understand the needs of warriors and proceed in
this fashion, you will be successful; if you don't, you will fail."
"Only
through constant study of the art of war and the constant training of
the physical aspects of combat can you completely be prepared for war.
This is what makes the warrior both strong in mind and body."
(my personal interpretations and research taken from Sun Tzu's book; (Art of War)
*********************************
I hope that these words from Sun Tzu can help you on your journey of the arts. be Safe my friends.
