The only way that he is going to be able to override this very
strong emotion is to consciously disregard all natural
instincts and move forward. Not an easy task, especially if
the adversary is not an experienced one. This very often
effects what I like to call the 'sticky feet syndrome'. The
attacker may very well want to move forward because peer
pressure
demands that he fight and not run away, but his feet appear
stuck to the floor, his body lurches forward as though trying
to move, but his feet stay stuck firmly to the ground. This is
because natural instinct is telling him to run for it.
