I'm going to try and make this a quick as I was literally about to go to bed and realized I hadn't done my blog yet. Control, structure, analyzing, overthinking and details are a huge part of how I go about most of my life, for better or worse. Right now though the details are slowing me done and keeping me from moving forward in my Kung fu training. I am struggling with the thought of letting go of the details and trusting my muscle memory to get me through my forms and various techniques. Just the thought of letting go is creating an internal battle that is quite upsetting. The details and specific steps help keep me grounded and on track. I'm not sure if this makes any sense to anyone else. My thoughts are all over the place. I have lived the majority of my life staying within and following the lines. Straight or curvy, up or down, I like to know where the lines are, and where they are going. The difficultly for me is how to do everything correctly while not focusing on the details. I did work on some forms this weekend and tried to focus on speed rather than detail which seemed to work ok.
Namaste,
Michele Ward
