Takeaways:

  • Having a strong motivation helped me persist through the tough learning process
  • Repeating behaviors reinforces neural pathways, making skills feel more natural
  • All new skills feel clumsy and frustrating at first, but mastery comes through repetition
  • To learn new skills, just start doing the thing - even if you're bad at first - and keep doing it
