Reading
The best athlete wants his opponent at his best. The best general enters the mind of his enemy. The best businessman serves the communal good. The best leader follows the will of the people.
All of them embody the virtue of non-competition. Not that they don't love to compete, but they do it in the spirit of play. In this they are like children and in harmony with The Path.
—The Tao Te Ching
Quiet
As your day begins, spend a few moments in silence and stillness.
