How do you know the difference between doing something by force and doing something not by force? I realize that I tend to force things in life, specifically situations, and this is something that I am trying to stop. But, I am now uncertain as to when I am forcing things compared to when I am initiating things. Doing things, such as approaching people, is not always forcing it, but I'm just having a hard time realizing the difference.

Buddhist Teachings · Jun 24 Are we in the flow, or are we the flow? I was listening to part of a lecture by Alan Watts in which he speaks about life being a flow, and that we actually are the flow. I can't fully understand this concept though. It seems to me like we are more in the flow rather than the flow itself.

How do you practice not forcing things? In the teachings, there is the concept of not forcing things, Wu wei, so I wonder how other people practice this and implement it into their lives, and what changes and benefits they have noticed from it.
