All you have to do is wait," I explained. "Sit tight and wait for the right moment. Not try to change anything by force, just watch the drift of things. Make an effort to cast a fair eye on everything. If you do that, you just naturally know what to do. But everyone's always too busy. They're too talented, their schedules are too full. They're too interested in themselves to think about what's fair.

In "Dance Dance Dance," Haruki Murakami emphasizes the importance of patience and observation in navigating life's complexities. He suggests that rather than trying to forcefully change situations, one should adopt a more passive approach. By simply waiting and observing, we can gain a clearer understanding of the dynamics at play and know intuitively how to respond.

Murakami notes that many people are too caught up in their own lives and ambitions to appreciate fairness or take the time to evaluate situations. He argues that a busy and self-focused mindset can cloud judgment, preventing individuals from recognizing the right course of action in their lives.
