B. The Image
1. A lake on the mountain:a) The image of influence.
b) Thus the superior man encourages people to approach him
By his readiness to receive them.
II. My interpretation
A. "Conjoining"
With this situation, we might see a person who wants to influence others towards the objective or plans that he has deduced. However, the process is somewhat distorted because there are processes to be applied, that will certainly provide a "Tried and True" successful outcome. This is assured when one has a complete understanding of the crucial elements involved in the process, and those are sincerity, truth, and goodness. Display those.
This is the stuff that will be needed in order that one might want to acquire an attitude that will generally fit that specific purpose, influencer. In essence, think good thoughts about other people, that way during those pending events such as face-to-face meetings, you are not so much overwhelmed by those bad permutations you conjured up sometime earlier in the back of your mind. Do not project so much into an event beforehand, if so, let it be at least eighty percent on the positive side. And also remember that the target you are projecting or communicating to, will also absorbed that sentiment in small understandings.
Lastly, you generally think good thoughts about others, because the power of mental projection should be factored in, in order to assure that the projected sentiment is in line with desired outcome, that is done before the process of influencing the setup. The conjoining will be the right merger because of the fact that all-elements are being applied in order to make ready for-a-genuine and unbiased future relation. All-in-All, you projected the good thought, now make the approach. If the responses are indeed valid, and correct, consider that a relationship that will last for eons via, correct cues.
