Practice does not make perfect (despite the old saying)...all kinds of research shows that practice can not get us to the perfection, but more in the 90% area. (read this to understand more.)
However, practice does help us be prepared to do those things that are hard and to get us through the hard times keeping those habits we have been practicing all along.
Today, two of my children spoke in primary (the children's classes) at church. They practiced all week and did a superb job.
It was a good reminder to me, that I am not practicing for perfection, but for good habits that will last me a life time.
Yes, I still need to figure out the "quit when I get a compliment" thing, but I also don't need to beat myself up. I walk every day and that was the goal for the year. I am forming a life long habit of movement which is always a good thing.
Happy Walking!
