What make some believe immediate and decisive reaction is preferential to composure?

For example, how many times would you let someone assault you (verbally OR physically) before you react like you're mortal and vulnerable?





Why does tactical (immediate) reaction seem to trump strategic (planned) reaction?|||Because by the time that you think of the correct response, it is often too late.





In the case of physical assault, if you don't react immediately to protect yourself, then you will be unconscious on the floor, and unable to fight back.





In the case of verbal assault, by the time you think of the perfect comeback to say in return, the other person will be gone, and the moment is lost.





If you are going to PLAN things, then you need to anticipate what is most likely to happen in the future, and then plan an appropriate generic reaction BEFORE you have a need to use it.|||"Why does tactical (immediate) reaction seem to trump strategic (planned) reaction?" -- Because more often than not, preserving bodily integrity and life trumps the need to preserve ones self-respect any time. I'm not going to promote martyrdom over someones self-respect by compromising ones life/bodily integrity.|||I'm not Bruce Lee. Immediate physical retaliation is the only way I would be able to preserve my physical well being. I can walk away from someone who is emotionally assaulting me, that may or may not be the case with someone threatening my life.|||If you have someone repeatedly verbally %26amp; physically attacking you %26amp; you're still around??





Lady, you've got some serious problems.|||I would say a lack of maturity...people that are young, have a "knee jerk" reaction, whereas an older mature person considers the source and walks away.
