In the first part the Chinese Communist government turned to a farmer for the right strategies. Has there ever been a time when you've gotten good advice from an unexpected source?

Retreating from a confrontation is very difficult for me. By nature I am confrontational but know there are times when it is disadvantageous to do so. Sometimes I am successful at collecting my thoughts and re-engaging strategically. Other times, my anxiousness to re-engage overcomes me and I do not get the outcome I really want. How do you handle this type of scenario (withdrawing to re-engage later in a more strategic fashion)?

This feels like one of the most simple but clearly important strategies. Do you think meditation is a form of spiritual retreat that has the same effects? E.g. - time to disconnect from the outside and reconnect with the present moment. Capture time and learn more about yourself and get new perspectives on the outside. Great read today Danika!

(Skipt to QUESTION below). The further I get into the book, the more the approach bugs me. While the strategies presented are neat and there are real examples (it gets a little repetitive), there is little actionable advice about the when and how to use the strategy. More strictly it answers the "what" and nothing else. QUESTION: this is about retreating, losing the battle (to hopefully win the war). What are the conditions under which you have had to use this strategy yourself?

Hi Prof! What’s your favourite and / or most enlightening historical story from the book?

Dear Professor XIX, I loved the examples about eastern philosophies/religions, Taoism, Judaism and Islam. Western cultures seem to be so crippled by the idea of letting go and pulling back. Have you ever been on a spiritual retreat ? If no, have you ever thought about it ? Thank you for the classes and the consistent work !
