26 to 21

Almost a year ago, an i ching expert told me that the i ching is telling me, that changing my personality won't be the worst thing...to be polite (41.3 - jackpot ^^)

First I just read the words again and again, without getting the deeper meaning.

Then...after a few month i started to realize its deeper meaning by nature...without a stable heart your mind is playing tricks with you, without a mind you can trust in, you wont make the right decisions and without right decisions you will neighter do well concerning others nore will they concerning you.

damned hard to live after that "simple" rulez, cause the first wrong decision in your mind you don't catch can effect everything by time (as it grows inside you)

so - now i did want to know if i can trust the way i handle my inner conflicts and asked:

How would you judge the development of my personality?

Answer: 26.2.3.4 to 21

Am I on a right "journey" or is it a suggestion to try a u-turn?

Insights appreciated!

p.s.: Please forgive me my poor English

You have a higher goal for yourself and are cultivating virtue. Eventually you will master the rough edges of your personality, but that time has not quite arrived yet.

I perceive the restraining force is emphasized as much or more than the assertive force, in the Yi. 26 is a focal point of that principle. To restrain a large animal requires more than brute strength, since the beast would physically kick our butts. It requires patience, timing, communication, courage and knowledge, to tame such a force.
