In taiji, you need to relax so that you can move.
In life, I think it is the same thing. When you are going at 100%, you cannot change direction. When you are putting in 100% effort, you can't change the way you are doing things. In order to change something, you need to cut yourself some slack. Go at 80%, or even less, so that you can use that 20% (or more) to change things.
Something that I learnt from pushing hands, and something that I think applies in other areas of life too. Sometimes, pushing too hard doesn't change anything. You need to ease off a bit in order for things to change.
