Topic: Do Not Do Battle On The Enemy's Turf

You have an inner opponent or adversary. Your opponent wants you to do battle or to engage you in battle. One of the strategies of your inner opponent is to manipulate you to get you to fight on the inner opponent's home turf. The reason your opponent wants to manipulate you to fight on your opponent's home turf is because you are at a disadvantage fighting on someone else's ground. Fighting on a foreign territory is more difficult because the territory is unknown to you. When you do battle on the opponent's turf, you are not only on unknown ground, you must also carry your resources with you to do battle. To achieve victory, do not engage the opponent on any turf other than your own. When you are tempted to go in a direction you know is not advantageous, do not go in a disadvantageous direction. For example, if you have a destructive habit, do not go into a territory where you will be tempted to engage in the habitual behavior. When you move in a direction, only move in a chosen direction because you have made a decision to do so based upon scoring a victory. When you are tempted or enticed to move in a direction in which you should not go, make the decision to establish a defense and refuse to move to the opponent's turf.
