Practice Doesn't Make Perfect - Practice Makes Permanent

from Coffee with Colm · host Colm O'Brien

I'm sure you were taught, as I was, that practice makes perfect and yet it seems we were both taught wrong, not on purpose mind, but wrong nonetheless. Practice does not necessarily make perfect, but practice ALWAYS makes permanent. You see whatever you practice you get better at. As human beings, we learn to operate mainly subconsciously in terms of something we practice regularly, think driving for example.  But, unless you passed your driving test last week, how would you feel about your chances of passing it if you had to retake it in 48 hours time? I am full sure I'd fail! Why? Because my 'practice' over decades has created 'permanent' habits that I don't believe would stand up to scrutiny of a drive test professional! There are four areas around which I suggest you consider your automatic practices: Your Health Your Wealth Your Relationships Your Spirit I invite you to stick on the kettle, grab a coffee, and practice thinking with me for a few minutes. Enjoy
