Being stuck, according to Wiles, is “part of the process.”41 But “people don’t get used to that,” he says. “They find it very stressful.” When he got stuck—which was often—Wiles would stop, let his mind relax, and go for a walk by the lake. “Walking,” he explains, “has a very good effect in that you’re in this state of relaxation, but at the same time you’re allowing the sub-conscious to work on you.”
