Source: Mencius, "Gongsun Chou I"
Set this aside for now.
"Let us set this aside for now." Not the time to force things; put it to one side. If there is no result yet, let go for now and return when the time is right.
| Single | No need to rush; live your own life for now. |
|---|---|
| Dating | Shelve the stuck argument; talk again when calm. |
| Married | Postpone a hard issue to avoid emotional decisions. |
From Mencius: when Gongsun Chou asked him to compare himself with ancient worthies, Mencius said, "Let us set that aside", and spoke instead of his wish to learn from Confucius.
