The Inside

The Dragon Halts! Do not react immediately when trouble threatens. Pay Attention! Strive to produce a quality product, but do not talk a lot about it. Pay attention! Complete your commitments despite insults, and other difficulties. No Blame. The Wise listen to advice. A fool cannot learn anything from anyone. Think. Prove yourself by fulfilling your commitments. Good Fortune. The Dragon splits! It is better to be an axe, than a piece of wood. The situation is out of control. Get out now, before disaster strikes! Good Fortune!


The Outside

Be very careful when you are alone on the Path of life. Be aware. Do not expose yourself as a target before overwhelming force. Withdraw, and await the time for action. Think. Comply with regulations when setting up an operation. Be careful! End conflict by coming to your senses. Good Fortune. Withdraw from materialistic people, to seek your true friends. No blame. The Dragon does not look back. While bringing a project to completion, consider plans for the future. Look ahead.
