I Ching: Hexagram 46 - The Lines, Part 5

Six in the fifth place means:
Perseverance brings good fortune.
One pushes upward by steps.


When a man is advancing farther and farther, it is important for him not to become intoxicated by success. Precisely when he experiences great success it is necessary to remain sober and not to try to skip any stages; he must go on slowly, step by step, as though hesitant. Only such calm, steady progress, overleaping nothing, leads to the goal.
