In this life, everything’s about skills, about what you like to do and about what you can do for money. The more in demand your skills are, the more money you are going to make. Wouldn’t be nice if you could acquire any skills you may want or need?

You can do it. You aren't born with skills, however, throughout your lifetime you acquire more and more abilities from walking to driving and everything else in between. Skills that you can learn and improve as time is passing by.

There’s one thing I know for sure: you can develop any aptitude you wish by practice, hard work, and patience.

I am from Romania. Therefore English is not my maternal language; you might have noticed this. About four years ago I was so bad at English that I was writing it with Romanian diacritics(ș instead of sh; ă as in"the"). As I'm sure, you may know, in the English language, diacritics are non-existent, but I didn't realize that at the time, and I entirely butchered the language.

I continually exposed myself to English through this innovative thing called the internet, and now I can say that I am speaking reasonably well.

About five months ago I joined Steem, until that point I have never written anything, and because of the monetization possibility, I started writing. Of course, in the beginning, I wasn’t that good, but with practice, I got better, both at my English and at my actual writings. Now, I can say that I'm decent at it, enough to influence my ideas to other people.

There's a lot more to say, but the main idea is that you can at least get decent at something by constant practice.

What I want you to do now is to start something. It doesn’t matter if it’s something that you’ve been putting off for a long time now or something that you think you may like doing.

Start something, anything, and practice it. My advice would be to create a schedule for yourself, so you don’t get lost in life’s endless possibilities of wasting your time and stick to it. In that program include at least one hour of practising that skill and do it every day.

Do not miss any day. If you do it once, you’ll do it twice and missing days may soon become a habit.

After about thirty days of practising, it’ll become a habit for you, and even if at the beginning you didn’t like doing it so much the chances are that you will enjoy it a lot more now.

If you give a fair amount of time and attention to anything after a while, you will get better and better at it.

Another thing is never to stop practising even if you are the best at that stuff. This is the reason why Michael Jordan, even if he’s one of the best basketball players, he’s not missing any training session.

Make sure to tell me down in the comments what you want to start now. Good luck.
