Are We Doing Our Best?

I read this really cool blog post on the Rebelution today. It was about how people don't ever need stop learning. How we never really achieve the highest of potential that we can because we get fall into a level of good achievement and think we're doing our best. 
It was very fascinating... I couldn't even explain it all to you if I tried, but I highly encourage you to check out this blog post. 
You will most definitely be motivated!

WOW! That is an AWESOME post and very interesting!!!! I like the example he gave of amateur musicians often practice songs instead of tedious exercises etc; .. I've just recently decided I was going to work on my finger exercises for accordion-- (which I used to find so difficult..) but now that I've spent so much time practicing them- they are actually fun exercises! It's interesting how that works.. :D You can try it with milking heheheh ;) or wait.. you are going to have to motivate those cows! *come on guys, can't you go any faster* lol hahah :)

Haha!!! That's so funny that you mention cows....
BECAUSE...
I've noticed in the past that there were times when I was REALLY attempting to go faster and I was able to finish substantially earlier (like 30 min or something!). So I'm going to try now to see if I can step up to the challenge and really push myself!!!

....and hey! With all those excersizes you'll be doing now, I just may have to pay to see you in concert someday. ;)Courtney the professional Accordion player!!!! ;)

Cows..:D They are pretty awesome I must admit! From the first time I came up close with em' in Iowa.. I was just a young gal.. I called them over from the distance.. and the next thing I knew they all came running over. I was pretty scared back then, but I shouldn't have been.. besides everyone knows I could have just tipped it. ;) ;)

Anyways~!~ You are most certainly going to have to try that speed milking out and see if you make any new record timing! :D Hopefully everything goes smoothly and you have no problems! .. I'll be looking forward to those high ranking results m'dear!

haha! Hmm professional accordion player.. not quite sure if I know enough exercises to become that good! Lol!! :D :D but.. hey! You'd never have to pay either way! ;)
