There is another liberating aspect of these insights.  It is this.
Deliberate practice does *not* have to be enjoyable at all moments.
Sometimes "failure" can be frustrating, discouraging, etc.

Similarly, I am not always happy on the "surface" when working on
Leo.  Yet I know that this is fulfilling work for me, so in some
deeper sense I am "happy" even when growling.

I think language does not adequately express this difference between
deep and surface emotions.  When the deep structure is in place, the
surface emotions don't make so much difference.
