Not being good at something

 Not being good at something

While it is true that lots of things are not made for everyone, it is also true that practise makes perfect. As I said, you may end up discovering that it was simply just not for you. 

On the other hand you loose nothing trying, because there are those who born with talent inside of them but also those with the passion and determination to practise until they get it. Those who don't give up. 

I'd like to talk about one coach that gave me one of the best pieces of advice in my life. I used to skate on ice and we were practising, I found out I was doing the exercise just wrong, so I asked my coach why he kept telling me I was doing it right when I was surely not. He answered me that even though I wasn't doing it right, he knew if he had told me I was doing it wrong, I would have been sad by consequence I would have stop doing it. Instead if he told me I was doing just fine, I won't lose excitement what would persuade me to keep trying. So I may have not started doing it right but by keep doing it, it came out. It worked. 

Mine is just one case among hundreds of others, who have proved to become good not born being good at. It happens in lots of ways and lots of activities, you may be slow at first and then doing it with close eyes, because practise leads you to know tricks, shortcuts, advantages.

If you keep trying, you may eventually become good at it. It's all about loving what you do.

Changes

  Changes   Life keeps going, just like the world keeps moving, maybe you're feeling like you're having one of the best days of your life and suddenly you're a down dum in the dumps, or the other way round, when you feel like everything is lost, something finally feels right or end up being just the way you wanted to. Anyways, none of the situations I previously mention remains the same, at least not forever. Lots of people could claim that some feelings never die, that's true but unfortunately life isn't just about feeling, is about moving on.  I used to wish that my happy days last forever until I understood how impossible my wish was, no matter how hard I tried, my days could never be all rose colour, because my days not only depend on me but on so many external factors, impossible for me to control.  The bright side is that no matter how bad you're feeling, even if you feel like it's the end of the world, believe me, nothing las...

Someone

  Someone We all need someone, company and talks. We all need someone to step in our life and let us know that everything it's all right, someone who doesn't let us down. I'll call it a safe place, where you know you'd always run whenever things are wrong, and nothing makes sense. Not everyone can be your safe place, because unfortunately people usually let us down, but everyone has a someone, someone you know no matter what happen he or she won't slip away. Some one who stays in hell and heaven. I know it's hard to find someone like that, and if you already did, take care of them, the world is not full of them.  Those are the ones who take you back to life when you feel like drowning, I believe we all need one in our life, being alone and waiting to figure out everything on your own it's okay. But we all need company and advice at least once a while. I thank everyday for having found someone like that, and know that as everyday goes, she keeps reminding me ...

Eclipse

  Careful   Don't let what they want eclipse what you need, they can be very dreamy but they're not the sun, you are.  This blog begins with the word careful and a little quote I heard a long time ago. Allow me to explain myself, why careful? It's an advice to all those who just like me, whenever they love someone, they allow theirselves to sum up their whole life to the person you love.  I mean yeah, love is crucial in our lives but love does not resume to one person and one person only, believe me or not there's far beyond one important person in our lives, even when it looks like it plays the main role, we must be aware that the main role in the story is play by no one but us.  When you allow someone to eclipse yourself, you suddenly stop enjoying  life, why? because whenever they're not with you, you could feel like everything is useless, nothing but a lie playing with your head. You used to enjoy somethings before that someone came ...
