Quote:

At the heart of Tao philosophy is the 70% rule. It states that you should do a T’ai Chi movement to only 70% of your potential.
Staying within 70% of your capacity produces optimum physical accomplishment, simultaneously reducing psychological stress.

I found this interesting because medical science have also stated of a link between moderate exercise and longevity.

I know of a couple of athletes who died of a heart attack while going through rigorous physical regimens.

Similarly working at 70 percent capacity can also bring conditions of creativity, enjoyment of work and performing work mindfully.

You never cease to amaze me, ajay. :)

This makes sense.

Yes I agree. I feel I am being pushed beyond what I am comfortable of.
