Lao Tzu Quotes about Work

  • A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: We did it ourselves.
  • Do not look only at yourself, and you will see much. Do not justify yourself, and you will be distinguished. Do not brag, and you will have merit. Do not be prideful, and your work will endure.
  • In work, do what you enjoy. In family life, be completely present.
  • The True Person benefits yet expects no reward, does the work and moves on. There is no desire to be considered better than others.
