Siar Xplore Jan 09 (CNY Eve)

Adapt yourself to everyone else
A Proteus of discretion.
Learned with the learned, saintly with the saints.

This is a great way to capture the goodwill of others, for similarity generates benevolence.
Observe people's temperaments, and adapt yourself accordingly.

Whether you're with a serious person or a jovial one, follow the current and politely transform yourself.


This is especially true of those who depend on others.
It is a great stratagem for living prudently, and it requires much capacity.
