Be busy but happy, and tired but joyful.
***
It's fine to be busy: just don't let it get on your nerves.
***
To take on tough tasks, one must prepare to tough out complaints, and to be in charge is to be in for criticism. Yet complaints help foster compassion and patience, and criticism often holds golden advice.
***
Don't measure success and gain by wealth and rank: to benefit ourselves and others as best we can is all that matters.
***
Work swiftly, but don't tense up; relax your body and mind and never tighten up.
***
Work swiftly in an orderly fashion; never compete with time in a nervous flurry.
***
