Emotional hurricanes in private, business, and political life tend to seduce our attention and provoke self-defeating action. Often, the more we try to solve problems, the worse they become. Like a doctor pressured to but not prescribing a medicine, the wise hold themselves back. The greatest skill paradoxically becomes not doing. Small disturbances muddy a pond and only inaction, disengagement lets the water clear, lets emotions run their course, the storms of passion settle. Strategic withdrawal today may represent the best way for success tomorrow.
