"Do without doing, Serve without meddling, Savor the savorless. Big or small, many or few, Tackle the difficult when it is easy; Attack the big when it is small. All difficulties under Heaven Begin with the easy; All big things under Heaven Begin with the small. Therefore, The sage never tries to tackle the big And always accomplishes the big. For making rash promises impairs credibility; Taking things too easy causes too many difficulties. Therefore, The sage treats everything as difficult And ends up with no difficulty."
