“The harder we try with the conscious will to do something, the less we shall succeed. Proficiency and results come only to those who have learned the paradoxical art of doing and not doing, or combining relaxation with activity.”

– Aldous Huxley, as quoted by Mark Manson in:  markmanson.net/why-the-best-things-in-life-are-all-backwards
