The concept of Tao teaches one to be mindful, balanced and to learn by experiencing. These are also some of the key points which will help you remain focused and maintain your sanity while doing so. Try to maintain a healthy balance between work and life, so as you do not burn out and damage your ability to focus. Also do not be afraid to venture out and try new things, as boredom and a lack of challenge will lead to complacency, which will lead to a loss of focus, just be sure you keep that balance between wisdom and foolishness, divide your day between work and play so profit and pleasure can be the result.
