Use obstacles against themselves

Use obstacles against themselves

from The Obstacle Is the Way: The Timeless Art of Turning Trials into Triumph by Ryan Holiday

It can happen that an obstacle will be resolved by itself.

How to Apply This

  1. If nothing else works, sometimes standing in one place, or even taking a step backward is a good tactic.
    You have to be careful. This works only if it is a deliberate move, not just a decision to do nothing.
