Over years the perception of how one practices shifted and not for the better.
The way most practice is done now requires a lot of time. People now practice using this method: intake as much information as possible and wait for the moments when they can apply it.
Perhaps they may seek a moment or two to apply it, but not nearly enough.
You can cut the years of practice required in half by doing what musicians do.
- Learn basics.
- Play others’ music.
- Play their own.
The three-step process can be applied to any other profession. Writing?
- Learn basics.
- Write what others have written.
- Write your own.
The new age way of practicing has sadly removed the second step and the result is that it takes so much longer to become an expert–this is the workaround your lizard brain has come up with to avoid being vulnerable.
Follow the three-step process to going pro. Want to become a speaker? Learn the basics, transcribe your favorite speaker’s speech and perform it and after repeating the second step enough times, you’ll naturally flow into writing your own speech.
You have to stop letting the fear of putting yourself out there crumble the processes that work for turning you into the person other people will learn from.
Stay Positive & Do As Others Do, Then Do It Better
