You cultivate habits in an experimental way using will like a steering apparatus requiring lighter and lighter touches and with the aim of entering a current so that your actions can dwindle to almost nothing and you will be carried by the momentum of events from which you do not need to distinguish yourself in any way. Perhaps it is a matter of being responsive to the subtlest of cues so that matters are see at such an incipient point of their development that only the tiniest corrections are needed now to be properly positioned to deal with them if and when they arrive. You learn to see the cues and you develop the faith to trust in them; but these are the same thing and represent a different way of inhabiting time. This is nothing more perhaps than the theory of learning life by experience, or the theory of optimising away the will. Of course it fails many times, but progress may be measured by the increasing inability to tell the difference between success and failure. From the outside it doubtless looks like la belle indifférence.
