When an archer is shooting for nothing, he has all his skill. If he shoots for a brass buckle, he is already nervous.

He thinks more of winning than of shooting- And the need to win drains him of power.

Zhuangzi

An archer competing for a clay vessel shoots effortlessly, his or her skill and concentration unimpeded. If the prize is changed to a brass ornament, the hands begin to shake.
