Japanese "MUJO" - Deepstash

Japanese "MUJO"

Among the values prized in early Japanese culture was mujo

Mujo was defined classically for me as recognition of “the turning of the wheel of the law,” implying acceptance of the inevitability of change, of rise and fall. . . . In other words, mujo means cycles will rise and fall, things will come and go, and our environment will change in ways beyond our control. Th us we must recognize, accept, cope and respond. Isn’t that the essence of investing?

. . . What’s past is past and can’t be undone
