      Practice makes perfect is a lie. At best it’s 99.(9)%. The rest is a stubbed toe.

          THANK YOU.

          It’s so refreshing to hear this from people. practice is great, but if you’re doing it wrong and nobody tells you that, then you’re going to get great at doing it wrong. Constructive criticism is GOOD, being told you’re doing something wrong is GOOD - so long as these things are paired with suggestions for improvements, or being shown how it can be done better/more correctly.

          Practice is worthless without some way to measure whether you’re actually getting better at doing what it is you’re trying to learn.
