The Wu Wei ✨
- The Tao Te Ching, written in China around 600 BC, first articulated the idea of wu wei. ”Do that which consists in taking no action and order will prevail,” the book 📒explains.
- The idea is that we should stop trying to force action and get comfortable 😌doing less.
- Then, when we do move, our actions are natural, energetic, and accomplish the desired results.⚡
