S02-Mind Bullet Monday 21: Be Like Water

It's hard to argue that water is not the ultimate solution... Particularly when you notice water's unique traits and how they can apply to our lives. As a follow-up to the recent Adaptability Episode (Mind Bullet), Martin shares how water proves to be a fantastic model for us to learn from. Not many elements change from gas to liquid and even become a solid with general ease. Further, water provides a powerful model for two other important concepts; mastery & character. Maybe it isn't a coincidence that our body as well as the earth itself, is comprised of approximately of 70% water? When it comes to our character, water provides an example of many important traits we'd be wise to assume; strength, transparency, resilience, cohesiveness, patience, flexibility, formlessness, self-balancing/correcting, smooth, soft, etc. These are the same traits any, would be, "master" must assume while, of course, refusing the "master" label. The master never reaches for the great, thus she achieves greatness. when she runs into a difficulty she stops and gives herself to it. She doesn't cling to her own comfort. Thus problems are no problem for her. ~Lao Tzu Be sure to SUBSCRIBE and share this or another episode with a friend and each Mind Bullet will show up automatically for you each week!
