Overview

Racing and Writing in the Zone There are only three sports: bullfighting, mountain climbing and motor racing; all the rest are merely games. Ernest Hemingway from http: //www.hemingwaythoughts.wordpress.com The best feeling is when everything is 'natural' and things just work. It doesn't happen all the time, just on certain special occasions. from https: //writeinthezone.wordpress.com/ People talk about the Zone as a very outward thing, but it's not. It's very spiritual. To me, the Zone is when you're operating at the intuitive level; You're not thinking about it, so it happens naturally. You're at the top of your job. You've got your emotions controlled, your energy is channelled and you're just doing it. That's the Zone. You're just doing it. Andy Priax, British driver and former World Touring Car Champion The Zone is where you find your best performance and everything flows. I believe you have to push the limit of an activity to get this kind of experience. from the book, Overdrive: Formula 1 in the Zone by Clyde Brolin, a fascinating book that I've been researching and studying, then attempting to apply the principles to the writing journey . Reading a piece of writing without effort (effortlessly), reveals and illuminates the effort and craft of the writer. from https: //writeonwriting.wordpress.com/ Writing in the Zone: Thoughts on the Writing Journey This happens when finding the right words is no longer a struggle. Words simply flow into your head faster than you can write them down (or press the keyboard). You read what you have just written and say: 'Bloody hell. That's good. Did I really write that? Wonder where all that came from'! from https: //craigsbooks.wordpress.com/2013/11/30/writing-in-the-zone-thoughts-on-the-writing-journey/ and https: //writeinthezone.wordpress.com You think you have a limit. And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high. Ayrton Senna from www.beyondboundarieslimits.wordpress.com PPS Don't bend; don't water it down; don't try to make it logical; don't edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly. Franz Kafka
