Those who do lose, and those who do lose. Therefore, saints do nothing and do everything, stick to it and have nothing to lose. People's sense of participation is often defeated by several achievements. If you are careful to the end, you will never fail.
It is based on the desire of saints, not expensive rare products, learning but not learning, repeating what others have done, assisting the nature of all things and not daring to do it.

It is easy to maintain and maintain when the situation is stable, and it is easy to plot when there is no sign of the incident; Things are easy to dissolve when they are fragile; Things are easily lost in subtleties; Do things well, nip in the bud; To govern the country, we should be prepared before the disaster happens.
A hugging tree with tiny buds; Nine-story platform, built on each pile of soil; The journey of a thousand miles starts with one step. People who do one thing will fail, and those who persist will suffer.
Therefore, saints do nothing, so they will not lead to failure, nor will they be hurt by persistence. People will always fail when they are about to succeed, so when things are about to be completed, they should be as cautious as they were at the beginning. Nothing is impossible.
Therefore, the wise pursue goods that people don't pursue, don't get hard, learn from what others don't learn, and remedy the mistakes that people often make. This follows the natural nature of all things, without arbitrary intervention.
