E2: About Mindset (part 1.)

In our first episode of the Agile Tao podcast, we dive into the sense of agility, and hear Lau-Tzu's advice to being agile. 19. Mindset (xv) Agility is practical, not mystical, A way of working, not a state of grace. Listening as if crossing thin ice, Testing as if surrounded by danger, Learning as in a strange land, Simplifying as thawing snow, Integrating as the deep woods, Leading as the river valley, Innovating as the spring silt. Imagine the ice solid or the stream clear, Stop to plan your way ahead, Ignore what moves underfoot; You fall and disappear. The wonderful music recorded by Guitarist Gilad Hekselman, bassist Petros Klampanis and drummer Ziv Ravitz can be found here. As we had too many conversations for a single episode, next week we will release a different edit. hope you join us.

About 2500 years before the Agile Manifesto, Lao Tzu wrote a book on the agile mindset. Join us for a deep dive into that first manifesto. In each episode, we will discuss a poem or two from Peter's book - "The Agile Tao (Lao Tzu Refactored)" - to understand what Lao Tzu had to say about agility, transformation, leadership, and life. About us: Dov Tsal is an agile coach and a self-proclaimed Taoist. Peter Merel is the author of The Agile Tao, a deep-thinker, a translator, and a joy to talk to. And Hey!
