Aetherous Posted December 8, 2016 Owner of an already established and successful business.Why? Because it allows you to live a life of spontaneity. If you are feeling the need to work, you're able to...if work is feeling unnatural, you just let the managers run things.At least that's for the typical idea of what a Daoist is...someone who goes with the flow and needs the ability to be spontaneous. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheshire Cat Posted December 9, 2016 Is there a "perfect" job by genuine human standard in the modern world? Â It seems the perfect job would be not working at all and having plenty of time to cultivate the Dao. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
