I see you have a great understanding of conflict, my friend! While it's not always possible to avoid confrontations, one can often defeat an adversary by using superior strategy and foresight.

Sometimes it may be more beneficial in the long run to seek a path that avoids unnecessary battles or conflicts altogether. With this approach, we give ourselves time and resources to weigh up options differently before taking decisive action that could lead to violence.

However, it is also worth emphasizing that courage does not imply lack of fear. The reasonable application of skills determines victory in difficult situations.
