Act with unforced actions in harmony with the natural cycles of the universe. Trying to force something to happen will likely backfire.
I am a traditional Chinese family. My grandmother trusted Taoism. She made my brother and I copy Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching since we were young. I also found that my grandmother had a peaceful mind about things and rarely saw her have huge mood swings. Most of the time she is very calm and quick to accept unexpected things, and I think this may have something to do with the Taoist culture she trusts.
