The way to do is to be.

“Wu wei” means doing by not overdoing. It’s the wisdom of the gardener who nurtures growth without yanking on the plants. It’s the skill of the carpenter who follows the grain instead of forcing the wood. It’s the patience of the cook who lets the soup simmer, knowing interference will only spoil the broth.

In our lives, wu wei is the art of trusting the process – not laziness, but the hardest work of all: getting yourself out of the way
