TIPS FOR BEING ONLINE

There are some battles that are not worth fighting even if you win; there are others that are worth fighting even if you lose with overwhelming odds.

“If your enemy is secure at all points, be prepared for him. If he is in superior strength, evade him. If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him. Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant. If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them. If sovereign and subject are in accord, put division between them. Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected.”

• Using technology• Lots of us fighting one big giant• Multiple strategies make for lots of little fires• Calling them on it when they’re wrong

As Conrad Dobler said, “Set 5 mutual goals to agree on first.”

Often different paths lead to the same goal.
