In this episode, I read and reflect on Chapter 48 of the Tao Te Ching. There's no doubt that acquiring knowledge and skills is an important part of life. In Taoism, however, this is not the path toward wisdom and inner alignment. Instead, we're instructed to focus on letting go… not acquiring, releasing…not gathering, dropping…not picking up. This is a fundamentally different process and approach to personal development. One that challenges our current productivity-obsessed culture and compulsions. One which requires us to build new habits and exercise new muscles if you will….the mental and emotional muscles of letting go, releasing, and dropping. In this episode, I share some simple "letting-go" experiments I ran in my own life and invite you to try them yourself.
