If you have, then discover the Law of Reversed Effort: The harder
one consciously endeavors to do something, the more difficult it
becomes to succeed.
It's so obvious. The harder you try, the harder it is! As you ear
train, emphasize imagination and imagery rather than appealing to
the conscious will. For example, instead of trying to listen very
hard or simply verbally demanding that you will have absolute
pitch, you may imagine how good it feels to have absolute pitch.
Then associate that positive feeling with the act of listening.
If you feel like you're struggling, it's because you are
struggling.
When you have absolute pitch, it's going to seem ridiculous how
simple it is. The hardest part for most people is learning how to
not try so hard, yet still try. And at some point, you will
forget to try at all and you'll just get it.
And I'd like to make it EASY for you to play by ear!
