No. 58 · Like Mountain, Like Water
The verse
The goal is a mountain: the heart does not move;
the path is water: it may wind.
What it means
Holding to a goal and adjusting the method are not in conflict. Today, confirm the direction you really want while staying open about how to get there, so persistence does not turn into stubbornness.
Something to do today
- Keep the core of one goal, and adjust one detail of how you carry it out.
