The power of repetition

“That which we persist in doing becomes easier, not because the task itself has become easier, but because our ability to perform it has improved.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson

Not only am I putting my trust in such a motto concerning my progress with the Albanian language … but with pretty much everything else in my life/daily life, too.  I find myself wanting to measure my success, or lack there of, regarding so many things that it is about time to have faith in what Mr. Emerson said.

Decide what it is - and what it is not - that you desire to be good at.  That which you want to master, learn, feel comfortable with.

This decision, in itself, is a tough one.  Not to mention the act of persistence.  But I’m finding that the more time I spend in the present moment, the better I am at what I desire to become.
