On this, closing day of our annual winter acting retreat, I sit in great satisfaction about the work accomplished. I received the quote below from Ted Hoerl, our audition/cold reading instructor, which he read in a magazine on the plane ride home, about a woodworker:
I figured out that this wasn't the contest against my tendency to screw things up after all. It was about aligning my mind and my body to the task at hand. It wasn't about working against myself: it was about working with the wood. I was no longer guilty of believing in my inability more than in my ability.
