Perhaps you’re familiar with the Taoist saying that “soft is stronger than hard”…

To recognize the truth of the saying we need only look to nature.  Water will outlast rock, the blade of grass will bend in the strong wind whereas the stiff tree will fall down.

What is it that stuntmen and bikers say to do when crashing?  Go limp and completely relax.  In other words, be soft.

It is the things with the most rigid, un-giving structures that break easiest, such as glass.

Where are you hard in your life?

;)

Have you ever noticed that laid back person who it seems that everything in life just comes to him?  Do you find yourself being a little too rigid sometimes, even for your own liking?

Instead of trying to be the rock in your life, try to be the water.  Flow.  It’s a valuable skill to possess and one which will help you in all areas of your life.

Think about it…
