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.

It can end up being a great day or maybe the worse in your life but the thing is that you never know, no one does, that's when hope comes into our life hoping for it to be a good day. Nevertheless, a day can be good most of the times it's on us, the power to turn the day into what we want, also not denning that life can be tricky and if that's not gonna be your day sometimes you can't even help it. My point is that, sometimes we try so hard to know, to know the weather, people, places, activities, beyond others KNOW, let me tell you that not knowing is all right too, I mean what will be the point in living a life in which you alrea...
