Observing and Learning from Nature...The Tao Te Ching

Tao Te Ching: Verse 76 A man is born gentle and weak. At his death he is hard and stiff. Green plants are tender and filled with sap. At their death they are withered and dry. Therefore the stiff and unbending is the way of death. The gentle and yielding is the way of life. Thus an army without flexibility never wins a battle. A tree that is unbending is easily broken. The hard and strong will fall. The soft and weak will overcome. What is Lao Tzu asking us to consider in Verse 76? It seems he is asking us to be flexible

The 3 Steps To Having The Power of Completion

What is incomplete in your life? What part of YOU are you ignoring? Do you strive on getting your goals listed and work hard to achieve them? This is both admirable and encouraged behaviour to help move you forward. We all know the power of setting and achieving goals. However, something often gets missed out.
