After my initial experience with spoon bending, I found myself practicing it regularly, sometimes randomly deciding on a night to bend some spoons. I’ve gone through about nine or ten bags of silverware because I enjoy practicing on my own, outside of the spoon bending parties hosted by Zenka. However, I realized that doing it repeatedly led me to build up expectations about the results. I started thinking the bends needed to be in cooler shapes or more impressive each time.
This shift in mindset made me recognize the importance of giving myself a break. I understood that having a specific outcome in mind can create a mental block, not just in spoon bending but in life overall. Wanting something too intensely can hinder the natural flow and prevent it from happening. By staying relaxed and open, without rigid expectations, I found that I could better allow things to unfold naturally.
