Awareness of the Tao nurtures flexibility, and removing your rigidity creates an atmosphere of trust. When you live from the perspective of being able to say, "I don't know for certain, but I'm willing to listen," you become a person whom others identify with. Why? Because your flexibility lets them see that their point of view is welcome. By being open to all possibilities, everyone who encounters you feels their ideas are valuable and there's no need for conflict.

As you connect more and more to your Tao nature, you begin noticing that this principle is perpetually present, available in every moment. In other words, the Tao isn't trying to get someplace other than where it is. It has no goals, no desire, no judgements; it flows everywhere because it is energy of creation.

To be in harmony with the Tao is to be free of goals, immersed in all that you're doing without concern about the outcome - just noticing in each moment and allowing yourself to flow with the creative Source that's energizing everything and everyone in the universe. When you live in this way, failure becomes an impossibility.

How can you fail at being yourself and trusting completely in the wisdom of the Source of everything? With failure removed from your life, you understand what Lao-tzu means when he says that "everything he does succeeds."
