Effort And Intention

• Writing every day does not make one a better writer.
• Practicing music every day does not make one a better musician
• Cooking every day does not make one a better cook.
• Just meeting more people does not make one better at networking.
• Spending more time with the child every day does not make one a better parent.

More is not necessarily better.

Just doing stuff repeatedly may create a habit, but it does not improve the skill.

We become better at something only when we put in the time and effort with deliberate intention.

I need to have an intention about what specific aspect of my performance I want to improve.

I need to then put in the effort with the intention to improve that facet of my performance.

Effort has to be mindful- Effort has to be deliberate. It needs to have a goal, an objective- To keep raising the bar.
