pertinent excerpt from The Art of Learning

From The Art of Learning by Josh Waitzkin:

Periodically, I have had to take apart my game and go through a rough patch. In all disciplines, there are times when a performer is ready for action, and times when he or she is soft, in flux, broken-down or in a period of growth. -- found on page 112

A bit later:

...It is not difficult to have a beginner's mind and to be willing to invest in loss when you are truly a beginner, but it is much harder to maintain that humility and openness to learning when people are watching and expecting you to preform. -- from page 113
