The sad truth is that certain types of things can't go backward. Once they start going forward, no matter what you do, they can't go back the way they were. If even one little thing goes awry, then that's how it will stay forever.
Haruki MurakamiAll you have to do is wait,โ I explained. โSit tight and wait for the right moment. Not try to change anything by force, just watch the drift of things. Make an effort to cast a fair eye on everything. If you do that, you just naturally know what to do. But everyoneโs always too busy. Theyโre too talented, their schedules are too full. Theyโre too interested in themselves to think about whatโs fair.
