The best source is your instructor. S/he can show you the application of the moves in a combat situation.

Tai chi is an art of fluidity and a good self defense skill. because tai chi is known for its fluidity, brutal straight on attacks doesn't work on the user (if they know how to use tai chi). is like hitting water.

Tai chi 2nd defense skill is its healing ability during combat. this is no joke or fiction. the fluid movement of the body allows you to minimize the pain by transferring the attack to throughout the body. Wwhen you hit water, the water transfer the energy from your attacks to throughout the water body.

Tai chi attacks are normally hard yet soft (like a whip). It all depends on the user. Tai chi could be useless if the user is not committed into it. Tai chi requires a lot of patient.
