74 Accumulation
"An opening in the storming sea,
Gold deposited on bones.
Once accumulation has begun,
Take care not to interfere."
You don't get a geomancer/coffin/sea fable every day. For many of us well maybe all of us, we have to practice delaying gratification as it is not our first move. Immediate gratification is how you wind up with a tummy ache or much worse. Knowing one's strengths and weaknesses greatly improves opportunities to delay gratification. A leader does not know how to do all things but they do know how to delegate the work that needs to be done. It seems somewhat odd that doing nothing requires practicing doing nothing.
