How Your Enemy Protects You

Being OK with being OK.

OK and NOK.

Your enemy knows you are OK. Just as you are. So, your enemy tries to ‘rattle’ you. By getting you to think you are NOK. Meaning, your enemy will try to ‘get ahead of you’. Will, eventually, and, over time, copy ‘you.’

This means your only enemy is ‘you.’

Or, more technically, your enemy is NOK. The NOK side of ‘you.’

OK and NOK Conserve a Circle (50–50)

OK and NOK produce (and must conserve) a circle. Therefore, you cannot have OK without NOK. Your ‘self’ without an ‘enemy.’

Therefore, to circumvent the enemy, don’t bother with the fact he-and-or-she is NOK. Your enemy, like you, is OK. There is no such thing as NOK. From your enemy’s point of view.

Your enemy is just like you. Meaning. Your (only) enemy is ‘you.’ You already know this (impossible ‘not-to-know’ it).

NOK is OK

Therefore ‘ignore’ all ‘enemies.’ (All not-you’s.) Be OK with being OK (NOK half-the-time) (limited to half-the-time) (exactly).

OK. NOK.

Half-the-time, by Nature, you ‘do this.’ The other half: it’s OK.

Conservation of the circle is the core dynamic in Nature.
