The Taoist Trader: Love the Market as Yourself
Tao Te Ching (Chapter 49) We hold no fixed opinions. Our hearts are therefore open to the hearts of all. We extend kindness to the kind and unkind alike. Thus kindness becomes our very nature.

The Taoist Trader: Empty your Cup
Tao Te Ching (Chapter 48) Learning consists of filling; Following the Tao consists of emptying. So the sage does less and less until nothing is done.
