The 100 Guanyin lots

Lot 98 of 100

In business, you hesitate over coming and going

The poem

經商出入事遲疑恐惹閒愁與是非如鳥飛投羅網陷相看能有幾人知

In English

In business, you hesitate over coming and going,fearing you will invite idle worry and quarrels.Like a bird flying into a net, trapped,how many will realize it by looking?

What it says

Hesitating over a business move, you fear stirring up worry and quarrels. The poem likens this to a bird flying into a net: looking free, yet caught, and few can tell. When you are torn, do not rush; observe, ask, and weigh the risks.

A thought to take with you

When you are undecided, observe and ask more before deciding whether to act.
