If at first you do succeed.......try something new.
"If at first you do succeed, try something new" It is so easy to work at the things we already know how to do well. What I find difficult is sticking my neck out and trying something that I am not good at. I always make New Year's resolutions....and like most people I suppose....I break them. This year I decided to just start with something small, something that bothered me but wasn't too important and see if the new accomplishment would change me in any way. I love doing puzzles, I know what day Barnes & Noble put
out the new issues (sick, I know!) as soon as I buy a new book I go home and work on them. I have never been good at logic puzzles, maybe it is my blondness :D) This year I bought a Logic Puzzle book each month and just worked on that one kind of puzzle. At first I couldn't really do any of them without reading the explanation in the back-- and after a few months of dedication -- I can now work them up to the really hard ones....haven't mastered those yet! What I learned about myself is that I have the capability to learn whatever it is I want to know......so my flaw must lie in not WANTING to know enough. That's something I can work on.
