KNOW WHAT YOUR GOAL IS AND LET GO EVEN MORE.
I’d like to explore here wanting to accomplish something more than anything, like being a concert violinist or the world’s fastest runner, and LETTING GO EVEN MORE.
What does letting go even more mean?
Spiritually speaking, it means having faith unquestionably you will reach your goal and putting in the work, practicing or training etc.
In the Alexander Technique it means physically releasing all unnecessary tension in the body and using great posture and great technique to reach your goal, all the while staying with the means to the goal and not driving yourself mercilessly to reach the goal.
IN THE ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE THE GOAL IS A PHYSICAL GIVEN THAT IS IN A SENSE PUT ASIDE, AS ONE FOCUSES 100% ON DOING PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY WHAT IS NECESSARY TO ATTAIN THE GOAL WITHOUT SACRIFICING YOUR BODY TO REACH THE GOAL.
I want to state here that the Alexander Technique in its purity is a discipline that focuses on doing what is physically necessary to reach a goal without harming the body. If a person gains psychological insights along the way, that is a wonderful gift, but is not necessary to have psychological insights to run or play an instrument extraordinarily, with great coordination and minimal to no physical damage.
THE ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE SHALL MAKE YOU FREE.
Is this a guarantee?
Could be.
Over the years I’ve set physical goals and used the Alexander Technique principles to reach them.
But there have been problems when my goal is reached.
I quit the guitar when I reached my goal of effortlessly playing and effortless accuracy.
THE TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE, IF YOU CAN HANDLE THE TRUTH.
What does handing the Truth mean?
It means in running or playing a musical instrument, if you are going to let yourself win races or play concerts using the tools of the Alexander Technique, you need to let yourself win, then the Truth shall set you free.
IN OTHER WORDS, IS IT OK TO BE BE EXTRAORDINARILY SUCCESSFUL AT YOUR CHOSEN INSTRUMENT OR SPORT?
IF IT IS, THEN THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE.
