He's also read my book, "How to win friends and enemies" though at the moment he seems to be stuck on the concept of winning enemies. He needs to spend more time reading the section on winning friends.
I'm reading Sun Tsu at the moment (again for the umteenth time) and he does talk a lot about the concepts of misdirecting your enemies. Maybe we're all misreading this chap and these posts and comments are just part of a gigantic Taoist plan he has to undermine our confidence in his ability to fly and will shoot us down very quickly should we fly against him.
Of course I might be wrong, but he's still my hero

WoW, don't know we also have fans of ancient chinese arts.
My master told me. "To love your enemies, if you found one day you don't have any ememy, it may be :
1. You are a very small potato, you don't have any conflict of anyone in the world. Check if you really that small.
2. You are too wishy-washy/all time Yes-man. Check if you have wasting too much time in pleasing all people.
3. You are DEAD
Check if you are still breathing.
I learn this in my heart and after some 30 yrs of practicing, I would add one footnote.
Time is short, so no cheap stakes. In terms of enemy, make some noble one.
Just my HKD 2 cents

I like Sun's ideas that you beat your enemies before they even realise that there is a war on. To outmanoeuvre your opponent so they have no option but to surrender without a shot being fired is the true art of warfare and shows the genius of the Commander.
When I was five my big brother and sister told me that one in every three people in the world were Chinese. They said that I could see that neither of them were Chinese so it must be me. I believed I was Chinese for nearly a year thanks to them.
Having read so much ancient Taoist Military Theory - I'm probably closer than they realise
As for enemies, only the small potatoes consider me an enemy - the rest don't even know that the war has started
