Hexagram 35 – Progress: Leading with Radiance and Strategic Timing
In the I Ching, Hexagram 35 symbolizes the rising sun — the light of Progress emerging steadily, not through force, but through alignment, clarity, and contribution.
“Prosper, calm, feudatory, avail-of, bestow, horse, Sunday reflect, three-times, day-time, multiply, multitude.”
This is the image of the situation — and an uncanny metaphor for business growth and effective leadership.
🔹 Prosper with Calm
Real progress in business isn’t built on frantic effort; it’s sustained through calm clarity. Strategic leaders understand that when vision and timing align, growth feels natural — not forced.
🔹 Be the Feudatory
In ancient times, the feudatory was a noble figure entrusted to act on behalf of the king. In modern terms: managers, team leads, founders. Your influence depends on how well you serve the greater mission, not just your own role.
🔹 Avail of the Moment
Opportunity doesn’t always knock loudly. Sometimes it shows up as a conversation, a quiet trend, or a shift in team energy. Progress comes from knowing when to act and when to prepare — and recognizing the value of timing.
🔹 Bestow and Multiply
Whether it’s giving credit, sharing insight, or creating space for innovation, generosity multiplies momentum. When you invest in your team’s success, the results echo far beyond your individual efforts.
🔹 Reflect with Intention
Let Sunday reflection be more than a pause — make it a practice. Check in three times a day (yes, even briefly):
- Morning: What’s my priority today?
- Midday: Am I still aligned with it?
- Evening: What did I multiply — clarity or confusion?
Because real progress doesn’t just advance projects — it amplifies culture, values, and clarity for the multitude.
Progress isn’t just movement — it’s radiance made visible.
Let your leadership rise like the sun. 🌅
