[6] When inferior men invade those people who are the foundation upon whom the<br \/>\nsuperior man depends, they begin undermining his support and turning people against<br \/>\nhim. Those who remain true to him are attacked and their reputations besmirched. No one<br \/>\nremains who is loyal to the man. He is nominally in charge, but there is nothing that he can do. Disaster appears imminent, and there is no rescue in sight. All that the man can do is<br \/>\nwait and hope that things will work themselves out on their own.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span face=\"Roboto, Arial, sans-serif\" style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\n2. [6] Once entrenched, inferior people begin taking control and seek to discredit the superior<br \/>\nman himself. He sees this, and is troubled by it, but there is no one that he can turn to.<br \/>\nHis subordinates have deserted him, and no one above him even cares. He faces the crisis<br \/>\nquite alone, and his enemies are waiting for him to make a wrong move. This is a very delicate<br \/>\nsituation. Since the superior man is entirely vulnerable and standing alone, his best<br \/>\ncourse is to avoid taking action and remaining out of the line of fire. If he were to vigorously<br \/>\ndefend himself and try to forge ahead, he would only meet with disaster.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span face=\"Roboto, Arial, sans-serif\" style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\n3. [6] A man may find himself compelled to associate with evil people because of commitments<br \/>\nhe has made to others. It would be a bad situation, except if he were forced to deal<br \/>\nwith them alone. Fortunately, he has ties to a superior man who acts as a guide and inspiration,<br \/>\nso that the evil environment leaves him unscathed. This means he is not part of the<br \/>\ncorrupt people around him, but that is what keeps him from himself going down a wrong<br \/>\npath.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span face=\"Roboto, Arial, sans-serif\" style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\n4. [6] When misfortune arrives, it cannot be avoided and must be endured. But even in defeat,<br \/>\nthe superior man adheres to his principles. He is well aware that all things are subject<br \/>\nto the law of change. He remains true to himself, endures the adversity, and looks forward<br \/>\nto emerging in time from disaster, just as he, in time, happened upon it.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span face=\"Roboto, Arial, sans-serif\" style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\n5. [6] At last, the inferior elements that had been so threatening finally relent and submit<br \/>\nthemselves to the leadership of superior men. The inferior no longer seek to undermine the<br \/>\nefforts of superior men, but back down, realizing that their best interests are promoted by<br \/>\nthe best people, not by evil designs. Moreover, even inferior men caution other inferior men<br \/>\nto adopt the course laid out for them by the superior man. When this happens, everyone &#8212;<br \/>\nhigh and low &#8212; benefits, and all goes well.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span face=\"Roboto, Arial, sans-serif\" style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\nTop. [9] Finally, after the inferior elements have done their mischief, the time of misfortune<br \/>\nends, and the future holds greater promise. That which was intended from the beginning at<br \/>\nlast has a chance to manifest itself. With the inferior elements out of the way, the superior<br \/>\nman is again able to move ahead and accomplish great things. His influence upon his subordinates<br \/>\nis again established, and they readily follow his leadership with loyalty and enthusiasm.<br \/>\nThe evil man, however, is confronted with his evil, and it consumes him, because<br \/>\nevil has nothing constructive to offer and attracts no positive rewards. In the end, the advances<br \/>\nit attains through deceit and the honors it wins through <a href=\"https:\/\/mediaeclatdotcom.blogspot.com\/2019\/07\/hexagram-23.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dissimulation<\/a> are all shown<br \/>\nto be an empty shell, and the evildoer is humiliated. The inferior man, incapable of creatively<br \/>\npursuing what is right, true and just, contributes best to his own advancement by allying<br \/>\nhimself with the superior man, not opposing him.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span face=\"Roboto, Arial, sans-serif\" style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/>\nPlease Comment, Like and Share<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span face=\"Roboto, Arial, sans-serif\" style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div><b style=\"text-align: center;\">Credit |&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/9TcCTfh-oPU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">youtube.com<\/a><\/b><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mediaeclatdotcom.blogspot.com\/p\/by-james-byrd-mba-business-consultant.html\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"60\" data-original-width=\"468\" height=\"59\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/a\/AVvXsEj8wYgqJ2XWKNpEawp3ofPFX_EDxnjhGhLxlx24SdwWsy0V6WnHgYVqMM3CPvDNYEl2oL2VOJpaaF7kmLdi-0_B-m51cMpH2Qs4xasvEnQI9FRgun9OPDpFd-oMFG0uwD2xpDPBUQxLMooVXxkMwyXqOf66VSvEwUMCYeDfoVZpQnLgs3hiEXdtK7PRTg=w460-h59\" width=\"460\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Credit |&nbsp;youtube.com The Lines Bottom.
