There is a Law of Reversed Effort. The harder we try with
the conscious will to do something, the less we shall succeed.
Proficiency and the results of proficiency come only to
those who have learned the paradoxical art of doing and not doing, or combining
relaxation with activity, of letting go as a person in order that the immanent
and transcendent Unknown Quantity may take hold.
We cannot make ourselves understand; the most we can do is
to foster a state of mind, in which understanding may come to us.
Aldous Huxley
