Thanks for yet another great piece. I admire your discipline consistently churning out 2 pieces every week! Not easy.
This quote resonates with me. ‘Those who overdo anything destroy it, Those who grasp anything lose’. As I have a tendency to overly focus and overdo when I am passionate about something. Also thinking that we live in a ‘monetize and scale fast’ society so this is a timely reminder.
Thanks so much for the compliment (encouragement)! I'm still revising some early letters, and I feel I am fighting battles both front and end. The idea is to make the entire Tao Te Ching series a stand-alone section with a guide and introduction so we can all return to it whenever needed. So, I'm also constantly pushing myself to the limit.
My understanding is that we can learn the timing to relax and release some level of control for particular outcomes when the circumstances allow us to do so. Not overstretching ourselves is challenging, but, as you said, it is a reminder.
Thanks for sharing your reflections. Worthy project. Slightly tangential but you may find this helpful to spur some ideas on releasing as post or as a release:

This is an excellent guide. I'm sure I'll revisit it while building this publication. Thank you so much!!
