Rewarding Practice


From this humble beginning:

no handshake, hugs

To this less humble stage:

Twitter Avatar sketch for @RadishSpirit - Faithful version - Radish Spirit

There yet?

Not sure what or where there is, but I keep practicing.
Results are coming. Those are proof of improvement and some smatter of success.

A coworker asked me to donate artwork for a fund raiser.
FLickr folks looking for me to sketch their portrait.
Twitter buds as well.

All of those things aren’t where I’m headed. They are rewards that come with continued practice.

Some results, well, they’re humbling. Being asked to sketch is humbling as well.

What are you practicing?

Blogging? Speaking? Crafting?

Are you working on it consistently? Slacking? Complaining about it?  Chris Brogan reminded me about the value of practice and why we should respect the privilege of it. (1)

Tell me about it! Share with me! You shouldn’t brag unprompted but sharing rocks and I’m here to brag for you.

I love how you keep doing these sketches. To see how far you have come and know you'll go even further.

I am always continuing to practice, practice, practice my blogging and social media skills. I am amazed at the different techniques everyone uses and how differently the results are for each of us. This week I'm going to be practicing my speaking at home getting ready for the conference next week which I am nervous about - ack! Robyn
