"Practice isn't the thing you do once you're good. It's the thing you do that makes you good."

 

-- Malcolm Gladwell

 

A simple principle but something I do not really enjoy doing. I must admit that I often think that practice is something that can be skipped, why do it? 

 

Today I was reminded on why practice is a step that should not be skipped. I fell flat on my face today when I attempted to pitch a sales presentation that was new and obviously not rehearsed thoroughly. 

 

I did stumble through, but the fear of falling on my face in front of LIVE people, was terrible. I am not sure of the outcome, but for sure I have learned a lesson! 

 

Practice, Practice and Practice…it does make perfect!
