Well, there isn't one. The more interesting ideas you get from concepts your language does not cover - actually, in this case, both of my languages.
The first idea comes from the Greek word KAIROS. Kairos is "the art of choosing the opportune moment;" in a nutshell, what to do when, how much to do it etc. Something like the Biblical salt and the skill is to be found in a couple of percentage of the population. Hard to define and hard to master, it mostly goes undetected and unutilised in the ways of the world. It is also acutely lacking, to complete this perfect maze.
The second I found in Bosnia, borrowed from Turkish. SEVAP designates "an act that is dear to God." If we can't be intelligent, it would be good that we are meek, but alas we are not that either. You do sevap when you selflessly help. So if you see a kid's ball on the street, toss it back!
