Lao Tzu didn’t chase influence.
He didn’t try to build an audience.
He tried to walk away.
And yet, in a moment of reluctance, he left behind words that have outlived empires.
There’s something powerful about that.
The things we resist aren’t always distractions.
Sometimes, they’re responsibilities in disguise.
What if the thing you keep avoiding,
is exactly what you’re meant to do?
