Wu wei — non-action

Wu wei means action that doesn't exhaust itself through resistance—you move with the shape of what's actually happening rather than against what you wish were true. It's not passivity but a kind of intelligent yielding that often accomplishes more than force precisely because it wastes no energy fighting friction.
