Relaxing Into Power; Flow; Getting Into It
Let me start by trying to explain more clearly what I'd like to get at. I'll start by describing some of my experiences along these lines.
Every now and then I'll get into a friendly tussle - a kind of stand up wrestling match - with one of my (honestly beloved) family members. (All in fun for everyone.) I find I can tussle in one of two very different ways. I can "struggle" to win, "struggle" to exert force, "struggle" to overcome. And I usually do okay.
Or, instead of struggling, I can do what I'll call "relaxing into power." (Some of this may sound goofy. I don't really have the words for it, so please bear with me.) I sort of calm myself inside, and/or let something go inside. It can even seem to feel as if I'm relaxing my grip on the other person. I have a curious sense of . . . focus . . . or purpose . . . or attention. I don't quite know what to call it. Somewhat as if I'm putting aside distraction and also the need to struggle. And when I do this thing-whatever-it-is, I win the tussle easily, every time. A . . . non-egoistic . . . sense of power just kind of flows through me during the process. I don't know anything about Zen, but I'll use this phrase anyway - it almost feels "zen like."
(Please understand. I'm not bragging or crowing here. I'm trying to get at something deeper - with the goal of being able to do it more consistently and effectively; and be able to generalize the process in useful ways to other things - like internet marketing.)
In a somewhat - somewhat - similar vein, I can get into "flow." I'll be working away at my computer, typically on a writing project that I enjoy. I get into the work and lose track of time. I'm in the groove, on a roll, caught up in the creativity. This can occupy 8 or 10 hours of time sometimes, with very little in the way of breaks. I'll virtually forget to eat sometimes. When I'm done, I have a sense of completion and accomplishment, and satisfied calmness. I can leave the work behind and go on to focus freely on other things.
I haven't yet tried to get into "flow" intentionally as I have with "relaxing into power." So far it just spontaneously happens sometimes.
Then, there's "getting into it." I'll do this sometimes when I'm with another person and doing something for their sake that I might not otherwise choose to do. Or I can do it sometimes with work tasks, when I actually think to do so rather than "struggle." I just choose to focus myself on the task at hand and really get into it. I bring more energy and attention to bear; perhaps put more speed and power into any related physical moves; choose to get energized about whatever it is.
When I do this, everybody involved (including me) seems to have a much better time. If it's work related, the work goes better and more gets done.
Somehow or other, I'd like to sort of put these three similar-but-somewhat-different states . . . relaxing into power . . . flow . . . and getting into it . . . together and have them more readily available more of the time.
I'd also like to learn more about them from someone who is better at it than I am. And / or I'd like to find ways to teach it and thereby learn more about it / advance it interactively as well.
Any thoughts, advancements, or recommendations based on experience?
Anybody you know whom you're quite certain knows how to do this sort of thing skillfully and intentionally?
Do you have any personal connection with anyone highly experienced in this area to whom you'd be willing to introduce me?
