To me, the best strategy of martial arts is to try the best of your ability to avoid a fight (ego) or never initiate a fight unless absolutely necessary (life is at stake). This applies to world affairs too.
Good point It's no good wrestling "bob" if "bill" if standing over you both with a golf club.

If I found myself on the ground wrestling a violent/stronger attacker, then I'd like to think that 10 years of training would be of some benefit. Realistically it would, but I'd really like to learn what to do(and not) if I was ever in that situation.

I also want to be the best instructor that I can be (when that happens), so I've decided to always be a student.
