Derek Jeter



Many of us were taught that practice makes perfect. Such a catchy cliche has been used to motivate aspiring athletes, singers and just about anyone across the globe who want to succeed. I worked with a group of motivated people for many years and they taught me that practice makes improvement......not perfect. I guess the idea came from the fact that none of us stand perfect. After starting to draw again, I'm reminded of another variation of that cliche...practice makes permanent. I think I'm, sold on the latter.
Example:
1. Practice makes perfect: If you practice something the wrong way, then you've successfully mastered it perfectly wrong.
2. Practice makes improvement: The sames goes for this saying, if you practice your craft without the proper technique, then you'll just be very good at being very bad.
3. Practice makes permanent: I'm realizing more and more that practice is important, but practicing the proper technique is vital to my improvement.

So, practice, practice, practice, but now I'm focusing on practicing the right technique, the right way with the right attitude and then I'll get my desired result.
