变换你的行为模式，不要一直用同一种方式处理问题，以分散别人的注意力，有竞争对手时，更是如此。不要总是根据第一反应做事，人们会很快记住你这种一成不变的风格，并可预想到你的下一步，挫败你的计划。一只直飞的鸟很容易被捕杀；而迂回飞翔的小鸟则不易被抓到。最好也不要按照第二种想法做事，那样人们也极易洞悉你的计划。敌人一直在观察你，你要有过人的本领，以智取胜。赌徒从不打出对手可预料到的牌，更不会打出对手想要的牌。
vary the mode of action; not always the same way, so as to distract attention, especially if there be a rival. not always from first impulse; people will soon recognize the uniformity, and by anticipating, frustrate your designs. it is easy to kill a bird on the wing that flies straight: not so one that twists. nor always act on second thoughts: people can discern the plan the second time. the enemy is on the watch, great skill is required to circumvent him. the gamester never plays the card the opponent expects, still less that which he wants.
