What should I do if my business seems to need lies and cleverness?
Let go of worldly cleverness
A shopkeeper said he resolves each morning to speak only lies, since that is the only way he can sell his goods. The answer given is that this learned cleverness must be thrown away, going back to the state in which we were born, a simple trusting child.
All this cleverness we have learned while dealing with the world needs to be thrown away, and we need to go back to the state in which we were born, a simple trusting child.
