“Muddied water, let stand, becomes clear.” ~Lao Tzu
Stillness & Non-Action (II)
In this dynamic, often chaotic world, where a perpetual rush of information demands our attention, it's easy to forget about the peace and power that come from simply letting things be.
Just as muddied water becomes clear with time, pausing allows information to settle; often revealing new information.
Problems tend to represent themselves as a host of new information arriving quickly.
Knowing when to act versus when to pause and do nothing takes practice. Letting things be, is far more art than science.
It’s helpful to practice non-action and stillness, notice when and how it serves you best.
