The Scripture of the Founding Master

Chapter Three: Practice

24

A disciple asked, “I am not very proficient in handling matters. How can I become more proficient?” The Founding Master said, “You must be diligent in the practice of studying any matter before getting involved in it, of choosing well when handling it, and of assessing the matter again once you have completed it. If you extend this practice of always reflecting in your mind, even re-garding the matters of others, you will gradually become proficient in handling matters and find no impediments in all applications.”
