48. Right Action · 井 九二

Line 2 of hexagram 48

In practice

You have good qualities for success, but you've grown slack and stopped pushing yourself; this makes it hard to hold on to what you achieve.

The poetry

Down in the well, shooting at minnows. The jar is broken and leaks.

九二:井谷射鮒,甕敝漏。

象曰:井谷射鮒,无與也。
