Your full potential involves paying attention to the objective rather than the trivial details of each and every action. Embracing the entire experience; successes, mistakes, progressions and the reason you started the journey allows you to flow with it’s currents, rather than ineffectively force yourself upon them. In this place you let go of the debilitating desire to control everything and shift from the slow, clunky, negative, ‘thinking brain’ to paying attention to what matters most.
Thus, awakening the ability to jump in whole heartedly, and join the dance.
