Yield And Overcome


It has been said by the ancients to yield and overcome like water. The martial arts master turns away from the force directed at him. He does not meet it head-on but steps aside. By giving up one inch, we can get two. For every step back, two can be taken forward. There is a time for all things. A time to yield, and a time to overcome. Brute force is not always the answer. Sometimes subtlety is called for.
