Loved this! It's what I tell my Tai Chi students. A solid understanding of the basics and a lot of practice until muscle memory guides the moves so that one doesn't have to think about the nuts & bolts of how to execute each move, and can instead enjoy the energy flow. Now, I just need to apply the same process on my writing journey! ;)
That's so cool! Writing is indeed a totally different beast, can't say I have it mastered quite yet either but trying to publish something weekly sure helps work that muscle for me 💪
Ah, impatience! I suffer from this too. it’s ok to extend yourself for a bit and then return your attention to basics again. Like meditation, you haven’t failed just bc your mind wandered :)
Great advice about focusing on basics! They are the foundation for any activity we pursue. If only I could bring myself to practise scales before playing my piano pieces. Maybe just start with Praeludium every time.
What about your book ? almost ready?
An update is definitely in the works!

The problem with me is that sometimes I get impatient! I guess nurturing my patience is another learning skill I need to hone.

WHAT YOU ARE A WING CHUN PRACTITIONER HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS
I wouldn’t say I still practice 😅 but I do have a memory of what it was like to be a beginner practitioner!

Agreed, Praeludium is much more palatable than scales!!
not really a specifi answer.
What do you mean by update?
Have you a date ? (a project without a date is just a dream)
