In the Fire Book, Shinmen (Miyamato) Musashi describes a technique described as to renew. Musashi states that when fighting with the enemy, sometimes the spirit becomes entangled and there is no possible resolution. Taken another way, when balance has been lost it is time to renew ourselves and re-think strategy. To win, abandon our efforts, think of the situation with a fresh spirit and find the new rhythm. The trick to change the rhythm and win through a different technique without changing our circumstances.
