The goal being, if Life is my enemy, to trick Life into believing that I am close to defeat. When It thinks I'm close to defeat, that is when I spring on It and take It for myself.

And what is Life besides just in how I am living?

So, it is in how that I am living, where Life thinks It has me defeated, that is where It must be surprised, and defeated.

"Simulated disorder postulates perfect discipline, simulated fear postulates courage; simulated weakness postulates strength."

If we imagine our minds as a body, an army, and if this army appears disorderly, fearful, or weak, the appearance gives us a starting point to simulate them while we become disciplined, courageous, and strong behind the scenes. Doing this, we can surprise any opposition, mental or physical.
