Practice Doing What We Want To Do

“Long story short: a few years ago a group of American and Norwegian researchers did a study to see what made babies improve at walking. They discovered that the key factor wasn't height or weight or age or brain development or any other innate trait but rather (surprise!) the amount of time they spent firing their circuits, trying to walk." Daniel Coyle

What a funny example to give of how important practice is.  But, are we willing to wobble and stagger, as babies happily do in learning to walk?  Are we willing to look foolish, imperfect?  Many of us have had a lot of pressure to look perfect.  When you think of it, isn't that silly?  No one.  No thing is ever perfect.  But, we can become better by practice.  This might be a talent, like playing the piano, or an academic area like math (I am thinking of taking a math refresher course because I am not as automatic in math as I once was.), or a behavior, belief or attitude.  It takes practice to turn habitual negative thinking into positive.  To become better at anything, it takes practice.
