deliberateness

 
concentrate
trust
have absence of judgement
wait until you feel
allow your yin (receptive) rather than yang (assertive) to take over
pause
let feeling guide you
that's all

  1. Such wisdom. I especially delight at this: "let your yin (receptive) rather than yang (assertive) take over."

    It is that pause that's so hard for me to tolerate - invite - endure. I hit a fallow, and I wrestle with myself. I should be doing something. I should know what to do, where I want to go, how I want this to look. It's actually a rich, fertile time. I just need to let it lead.

  3. The Deliberateness idea comes from sumi-e painting. I used to paint watercolours and needed to wait for wet areas to dry, and leave just the right amount of pure white paper. x
