Make the crooked straight
Walk before trying to run
Maintain quiet and calm
Try to run too fast and you will fall. Stand on tip-toe and falter. Expect perfection and you might as well expect failure too. To be what you are not is to live a lie to others and yourself. Sit on the grass and look at the lake. Embrace the Tao and you embrace freedom, wisdom. Be content to be what is while on the path to something else.
