Do not measure the success of your physical performance, but rather pay particular attention to what is happening to your body, since the body is the gate of the soul. Focus on the even flow of you breath since the breath is the spirit of the pose and the measure of your inner and outer stability.
Composure, patience and humility are more important here than performance and achievement. A balancing pose teaches us to stand our ground with equanimity, hence opening the path for spiritual enlightenment.
