Shoot for nothing.


When an archer is shooting for nothing
 He has all his skill
If he shoots for a brass buckle
He is already nervous 
If he shoots for a prize of gold
He goes blind
Or sees two targets- 
He is out of his mind!
His skill has not changed
But the prize 
Divides him. He cares.
He thinks more of winning 
Than of shooting-
And the need to win
Drains him of power.



Chuang Tzu
