Great things are possible when one man's wisdom and an hour's effort are combined. An old proverb reads, "Well begun is half done." Awareness and integrity are the basic elements of honor. Those who have honor possess it even though they are ordinary people, while those who lack honor do not possess it even if they are kings. A warrior who overreacts will rarely finish anything successfully True warriors do not seek fame and position. Real men cherish the truth. To work for favor, or offer one's skills for profit, is the behavior of small men and mediocre warriors. When an opponent makes the first move, you see his style. When he is excited but you are calm, you use his strength against him. Refrain from reckless and thoughtless actions. Be as calm and judicious as a mountain. A sound offense has the power of roaring water, it fills every hole in an opponent's defenses. |
