On Conquering Goliath

| The Tao Chapter 63 – My Third Interpretation|

When challenges arise, see them as solved in your thoughts first, and so the physical solution will follow. This is acting without doing.

When challenges appear as Goliath sized obstacles, aim for its center and the giant will fall.

Successive small steps sum up to large leaps over time.

Master greatness this way: do not aim to accomplish the great. Instead, with integrity, love, compassion and excellence, focus on the one small step before you, in time you would have accomplished greatness.

LIVING THE TAO: Today, determine if your thoughts are consumed with accomplishing something great. If it feels overwhelming then stop focusing on huge greatness, and instead just take the first small step, then the next, then the next. Accomplish greatness with joy in small steps.

My 2018 focus is to intentionally live the Tao Te Ching. This is my third reading of Stephen Mitchell’s translation. I share my daily interpretations hoping to inspire you to do the same.
Embrace your journey. Experience bliss. Live the Tao.
