Wow…now that’s a cliche statement. “Practice makes Perfect”. Pretty simple.
Lets take that up one notch…
“Practice does not make perfect. Only perfect practice makes perfect.” — Vince Lombardi
But not easy. We think…what if it is really horrible or they make fun of me?
What if I fail?
Can I make it?
What if.. what if?
What if you SUCCEED?
Bear Bryant said, “Practice doesn’t make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect”
He also said, “The price of victory is high, but so are the rewards”
Think about that for a minute. Use that to override the negative monkey mind thoughts racing through your head.
