I just posted this on the Centerpointe DF, and thought some of you guys who are not frequent participants there would find it interesting, so I'll copy and paste it over here:

Releasing.
I was playing pool the other night with a couple of good friends. As this is not the first time we've been out playing pool together, they pretty much knew that on a good day, Stevie Wonder would have beaten me quite easily with one arm tied behind his back and a boxing glove on the other. I'm a pretty hopeless pool player.
As the first game was progressing (slowly), it became apparent that I was going to play no better this time than I had before. I was just as lousy as ever. Didn't know why I was even there. My friends had a good laugh.
Then I decided to try something. I decided to release on it. I also thanked God (whose identity I'm not yet exactly sure of) for all the blessings I have received, and all the blessings to come. I've learnt that from Joseph Murphy and it works like hell sometimes.
What happened? I enjoyed a couple of good shots. I released some more, thanked God, and had another couple of good shots. Then a couple more. And then I felt unbeatable and played by far the best pool I've ever played in my whole life, I was in a totally different class than anyone else there, and people where very impressed. I was very impressed myself, to say the least. It was awesome.
Don't you find this quite interesting? I do.
