A way to overcome fear is as Tao puts it -- learn to appreciate moderation. Aim for the best, but be happy to get even the least -- and appreciate whatever you get. For example, if you put in your best, but are still rejected by the person you like, the very least that it can get is to have a clear idea of what the person think of you. Better still, it may allow you to come up with a better strategy when you make your second attempt. When you can appreciate the least, fear could very well leave you alone because you can afford to lose. Without fear, you become more confident and are more at ease. Paradoxically, it is because you can accept the least that you may get more. This is because the confidence that you have earned increases in your chances of success. "There is nothing better than moderation, for teaching people or serving Heaven. - Lao Tzu Sun, 10 Aug 2008 03:46:24 GMT http://www.tao-in-you.com/dao_water.html Laotzu likens Dao to water.

Sun, 06 Jul 2008 14:37:09 GMT http://www.tao-in-you.com/tao-blog.html#Compliment-or-Blame?-No-Worry Tao is about staying close to reality, about clear mind. It is therefore very apt that Lao Tzu began his book Tao Te Ching with the following verse: The tao that can be described is not the eternal Tao. The name that can be spoken is not the eternal Name. It is not that we don't want to speak the truth. It is simply that whatever we say is often constrained, or even distorted, by our knowledge, experience or insights. On the other hand, there are also limitations on the part of the listener. She has her own set of constraints as well. We must therefore view compliments and blames with detachment. When we can stay detached, we will not be easily disturbed by whatever said -- even when it is a compliment. We tend to stay closer to reality as a result of the detachment. Staying detached is one of the prerequisites for the appreciation of Tao. Thu, 26 Jun 2008 05:43:58 GMT
