ADD YOUR VOICE#3 Chinese Cultural Concept Review of 陰陽 Yīnyáng
Show Notes

THE CHINESE HONEYMOON PERIOD highlights 10 Chinese cultural concepts that are widely misunderstood but essential for understanding HOW Chinese people think, WHY they behave the way they do, and HOW to create more positive communication patterns that lead to more constructive cooperation.

My Definition: Chinese instinctually feel opposing forces (陰陽 yīnyáng) create gray areas (灰 huī) to operate that produce the least amount of chaos for the greatest personal benefit (利益 Lìyì), and it is this balance between extremes, the yin, and the yang, where the greatest harmony exists.
