Summary

This quote suggests that the optimal state of being is to have a relaxed body but a focused mind. Being physically loose means to have a sense of ease and flexibility in our bodies, free of tension or stress. On the other hand, being mentally tight implies being attentive, disciplined, and thoroughly concentrated on the task at hand. By combining relaxation in our physical state with firmness in our mental state, we can achieve a balance that enables us to effectively tackle challenges and maintain a state of optimal performance.
