They don\u2019t wake up in the morning and suddenly know how to perfectly do what makes them stand out.<\/p>\n
The biggest part of becoming really good at something is the thing that most people dread very much: doing it all the time, until you don\u2019t have to think about it anymore.<\/p>\n
But there really are no shortcuts.<\/p>\n
Mind has got your back in this, for sure, but you have to be prepared to become the tool for divine creation.<\/p>\n
And that means unlearning as much as learning.<\/p>\n
Now for the unlearning part: consider why kids are so endlessly creative.<\/p>\n
They\u2019re not interested in results.<\/p>\n
They don\u2019t compare what they do with others.<\/p>\n
They don\u2019t feel the need to impress anybody.<\/p>\n
They are not distracted by limits.<\/p>\n
Because they simply haven\u2019t learned all the RULES yet.<\/p>\n
Unlike us, the grownups who know so much, they\u2019re not obsessed with what other people might think or what is even ultimately possible (which is only restricted by our personal ideas).<\/p>\n
Kids show up with missing teeth, dance like crazy little animals, and smile and sing their way through every phase of creation.<\/p>\n
They\u2019re totally IN it.<\/p>\n
So the unlearning part is where you shed all the ideas that make adults cramp up.<\/p>\n
Now for the learning part.<\/p>\n
There are most certainly skills to be honed and there is definitely a need for techniques to be mastered, at least to a certain extend.<\/p>\n
But it\u2019s not just technique that makes you interesting: it\u2019s using it in order to share your unique voice, even to where technique doesn\u2019t seem to be there anymore.<\/p>\n
Every year many people enter numerous talent shows and show off their well-trained singing technique, without really touching a single heart.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s only when we transcend technique and skills, that our creations become really interesting and captivating.<\/p>\n
Learning to do something is the first part: the second is forgetting how you do it, so you can lose yourself in creation again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
