The Yi Jing commented:
They act but do not presume -> 59.1.2.6 > 3
In formation
59 - Separation
One endures separation without opposing it by force.
1 - One examines the reservations to see if they are in order.
2 - One asks their close ones to look at the disorder they have caused.
6 - When one does not know if they can repair, they move away and refrain from asking the most able for resources to continue.
In the making
3 - Remedy
Time will need to be spent. Seek assistance and clarify the situation by identifying the problems.
My interpretation:
Follow-up questions are required.
