answer:I find that if I concentrate or “try too hard” things completely fall apart. For example, when we have a few minutes, my kids and I will shoot hoops in the driveway. When I first pick up the basketball in early spring, I will just take some shots and they will go right in. But then something in my brain kicks in and I decide that need to improve or alter something, so I will find myself “trying”, while I progressively get worse throughout the summer. By September, I can’t get a single shot in. I think some things are done best if you leave your mind out of it. Don’t even tell it what you’re about to do.
