It's Not As Bad As You Think!
There's a myth, however out there concerning those who are blessed with a lot of talent - It's simply they are born that way. The truth of the matter is that no-one reaches their fullest potential unless they are willing to practice their way there.
So why do I make such a big deal about practicing?
1) It enables development.
How do we grow and develop? Through practice. How do we learn skills such as riding a bike or driving a car? Through practice. Adults refine old skills and acquire new ones through practice. If you want to improve and develope, then you must practice. Done correctly, practice keeps making you better than you were yesterday.
2) Practice also leads to discovery.
One of my favorite comic strips is the Peanuts with Charlie Brown. In one of the strips, Charlie Brown says to Linus "Life is just too much for me. I've been confused since the day I was born. I think the whole trouble is that we're thrown into life too fast. We're really not prepared." "What do you want?' Linus responds, " a chance to warm up first?"
We may not get a chance to warm up before entering childhood, but we can warm up by practicing the many activities we pursue once life has begun. And it's often during these "warm ups" that we learn valuable things about ourselves.
Practice, however; demands discipline. One reason some people see practice as a grind is that it requires discipline. Developing discipline always begins with a struggle. There is no easy way to become a disciplined person. It has nothing to do with strength or ability. It's not a matter of conditions, but of choice.
We are what we repeatedly do. To become excellent at a task, it's not to act, but forming a habit and that habit is developed when you practice.
