if you ask an olympic athlete how they have become so successful, their response may start with "i’ve been practicing”.

every movement of practice and every ounce of effort had been put into fully maximizing their ability to perform. but isn’t even funnier to think that you haven’t “practiced” anything more than you have been able to practice life?

since you were born, that was it. you were given the moment to start. to perfect. and somehow, were just so bad at it. even though humans are creatures of habit, there is no routine way to practice how you live or what you decide to do.

you are constantly trapped in the spotlight, having to decide every action you will take next, not able to practice. maybe lives just have to be that. its either for you, or against you. no matter how hard you practice you just can’t seem to get it right.

and sometimes, you have quit.
