Don't be desperate to strike in a fight. That might lead you in the wrong direction and you might end up getting hit.
Keeping our head cool during such situation is the most crucial thing I think. Doing that is not easy at all. However, being hasty sometimes doesn't bring good outcome.

That's right. You can make better decisions when you are calm. Yes, I used to teach martial arts. Thank you for your comment!
