Attack is the best defence they say but depends on the position.Attacking from an inferior position is not good.

I'll give you a real answer. Although chess is about balancing attack and defense, most people prioritize attack.

Egg or chicken situation!.In such a situ chose the chicken,because it gives eggs. But which one is the chicken is the problem.Now that's where a players intuition comes in handy.Trust your intution to guide you.
