Suspend your disbelief. I tell you it IS possible. Put your skepticism on
hold for five minutes and try it.

Don't misread that as me 'having a go' Those words were, as ever, designed
to inspire an attitude in you which is conducent to success (as is these
ones also.)

REALLY BELIEVE it is possible - as soon as you do that, things will come
more naturally. If you're not convinced it will work, then the suggestion
that IT WILL WORK has clearly not made it through to the subconcious yet -
as soon as that message gets through, everything WILL come together in a
comfortable and natural way.

Let us know of your success, and any processes you think may help other
'newbies' to grasp this skill :)
