What’s up! Thank you for checking in. Let’s get right to it. What’s a skill? It’s an ability that is developed from consistent habits. There is a big difference between natural ability and skills. You are born with natural ability, which is something you don’t have to work at, but skills are based solely on how much work you decide to put into something. The good news is that any skill can be cultivated and developed with enough practice and consistency. How much is enough? Check out our post about 10,000 Hours if you haven’t already to see how long it actually takes (hint: it’s not necessarily 10,000 hours) to develop a skill. Also, check out the Power of Discipline to understand the benefits of consistent hard work and Effort.
