What practice gives you

Hard work · Little Light original

At first, learning a skill can make you feel less capable because it reveals how much you have been missing. You begin to hear the awkward note, notice the weak argument, or see the detail that needs correcting. Stay curious about that uncomfortable stage. Your judgment may be improving before your execution catches up. Choose a small part to practise and give yourself feedback you can actually use. Over time, familiar actions begin to require less effort, leaving more attention for the difficult decisions. Keep a record of these changes. Competence often becomes ordinary to you before you realise how much you have learned.
