When caught between advance and retreat and in the grip of fear, do not fantasize. Keep your options real. When opposition to your goals is real, see it for what it is and face it. Do not live in denial.
Choose small undertakings and be content with modest progress. Find commonality in the opposition and promote that. That leads to eventual success.
