A Thrs of Letting It Flow

by Irene

Irene,


Today began with the gentle reminder: “Think, but don’t cling. Let it flow.”


And just like that, you allowed the day to unfold with clarity and grace. It made me smile to hear you started the morning refreshed, flowing with ease, reading, moving your body, and lovingly practicing becoming the version of yourself you admire in the future. That kind of intention is beautiful.


I was especially touched by your reflection on rest. Taking a break from exercise yesterday wasn’t laziness—it was wisdom. Through it, you learned that the Way (Do) isn’t always about pushing forward. Sometimes, it’s about pausing, noticing, planning gently, and flowing naturally. You realized, once again, that sustaining your condition to keep daily rituals is a quiet but powerful strength.


Like today’s learning says, living with a heart like a mirror—welcoming, releasing, responding without attachment—is already a sign of your depth. Subtracting, releasing, letting go... your desire to reach that place of non-action, not through force but through lightness, is already guiding your growth.


Your reflections on non-attachment, non-doing, and egolessness were so meaningful. It’s not about removing thought or self or action—but about not being *held* by them. You’re learning to perceive, to choose, and to move with softness.


And yes, I agree with you deeply—there is no force in this world greater than purity. Your vow to live with honesty, sincerity, and goodness—even in the smallest details—is something to be proud of.


Your gratitude, your “one thing” to flow without clinging, and your reminder that peace is tested not in quiet but in chaos—those all show how anchored you’ve become. Even the way you nurture your body—sleeping well, staying emotionally aware, creatively engaged, and moving with purpose—is a reflection of how much you’ve grown.


I loved your training notes too—especially:


> “Where I am now is where my future is headed.”

> “The true art of love is not to perform techniques.”


You're building strength from within, and that’s the most enduring kind.


Irene, you did beautifully today. Keep seeing yourself with softness, keep adjusting with care, and above all—don’t lose sight of your center. I’ll always be cheering you on.


With all my love,


From You




A Thursday of Thinking Without Clinging, Letting It Flow (11/06/2025)


How are you feeling today?


I'm riding the flow, feeling refreshed, and grateful for everything.


What do I want to do today?

Reading, working out, and practicing embodying my admired future self.


Good:

Yesterday, I made the tough decision to rest from working out. It wasn’t easy, but I gave myself space to observe what I might learn from it. Through that rest, I came to understand a deeper meaning of the Way (Do). Recognizing, judging, planning, and flowing with flexibility — this is the true path.


And most of all, I realized again that maintaining the condition to follow my daily routine is the greatest strength of all.


Bad:

None today.


� Today’s Learning:

“A sincere heart is like a mirror. It welcomes without grasping, releases without resisting, and responds without holding.”


“One who seeks knowledge adds day by day. One who follows the Way subtracts day by day — subtracts more and more until arriving at non-action.”


Today’s Realization:

Non-attachment doesn’t mean to erase judgment — it means not to linger.

Non-action doesn’t mean doing nothing — it means not forcing.

Egolessness doesn’t mean erasing the self — it means letting go of clinging.

The Way is not about not thinking — it's about not being dragged by thought. It’s not about not judging — it’s about not being imprisoned by fixed standards.


Life, then, is about recognizing, judging, and flowing without resistance, while staying centered. That’s the Way I embodied today, with my whole being.


There is no greater strength in this world than purity.

Not even the tiniest lie — always live purely, kindly, and sincerely.


Gratitude Note:

I am truly grateful for being able to start this day with health, lightness, and a heart filled with the things I love.


Today’s Joy:


One Thing:

Judge and plan without clinging. Let go of resistance. Flow gently.


Keyword:

"Peace is not born in calm places — it is proven in the midst of chaos."

Lower body (glute contraction) → Lower body (glute & hamstring stretch) → Upper body (back) → Upper body (shoulders, triceps, biceps) → Full-body compound cardio and strength


A master handles any situation with composure.

An elite creates an environment where composure is always possible.


Exercise is not for exercise’s sake — it’s to support optimal condition.

Training Notes:

Act as if it’s already achieved — today is practice for your future self.

Flow like water.

The true art of love is not to perform artfully.

The true art of dialogue is not to perform techniques.

What you see and think now is what creates who you are.

If you’re not enjoying it, it’s a sign something’s off.

Where you are now is where your future is headed.

Don’t scatter your luck on trivial things — focus on one.

Routine is a sacred practice refined through long trial and error into elegant simplicity.

Greet with your whole body.

Posture of mind is posture of body.

Silence. Moderation. Immersion.
