I have said this before and will continue to say it... Chew gum, listen to music. Disengages the brain and things seem to work better.
As Adults we have a hard time learning... I think the reason for that is we have forgotten how to "Play"... When we played as kids and playing, there were not mistakes or even rules, and we just learned as we went, having fun the whole time... fall down, get up and go on again, laughing the whole time with your pals. "Playing" disengages the ego and makes the struggle of learning much less challenging.
So be kind to yourself and go out and "Play!"
@johnasmo says "Shut up and Ride" That works too.
See you all at the Montucky Clear CUT! Lets Play!
