    Taoism is a Chinese philosophy attributed to Lao Tzu which contributed to the folk religion of the people primarily in the rural areas of China and became the official religion of the country under the Tang Dynasty. Taoism is therefore both a philosophy and a religion. Taoism teaches to embrace wonder and the joy in living gracefully with style. Lao Tzu was an ancient Chinese philosopher and writer who is known to be the founder of Taoism. He is also credited as the writer of Taoism’s most sacred text, the Tao Te Ching and his words can apply to people all over the world.

    Absolutely! I so needed this reminder about the Taoist approach to self-discipline. For years, I was all about the hustle and grind, pushing myself to the limit. It definitely got results, but it left me feeling fried. Lately, I've been trying to incorporate more flow into my day. As the video says, focusing on when I have the most energy for specific tasks makes a big difference. What about you guys? Do any of you have experience finding more success with a less forceful approach to getting things done? I'd love to hear your tips and tricks!
