[Harp-L] Re: Break Through a Wall

[MilwHarmonica@xxxxxxx]

Hello, Will. Happy New Year.
 
Here are a few ways to break through a mental wall.  Remember, "where there's 
a WILL, There's a way".
 
Philosophers would say, to break through an impenetratable mental wall,  
these are your choices:
 
1. Don't try. Stay where you are. Play familiar tunes, scales, etc. until  
they are perfect. Do what you do better, long enough, and the wall will  crumble.
 
 
2. Don't try. Retreat, study something that's fun. Relax, forget about  it.
 
3. Don't try. Go around the wall. Find a different path that is  achieveable. 
Your goals are achieveable with a new viewpoint.
 
4. Don't try to "bust through". Stay where you are, and chip away or gouge  
at the wall, slowly, one goal at a time. Focus on one concept. Be stubborn.  
Practice it until you get it. Who's stronger, the mental wall, or you? You are.  
Once you achieve a small hole in the wall, it will feed your confidence, and  
you'll keep chipping away.
 
5. Don't try going through the wall. All you'll get are bruises.  Try 
climbing over it (step-by-step), or digging under it (learn a new way to  achieve 
your goals), or try jumping over it (get an instructor to boost you over  the 
top).
 
Best Wishes.
