Interesting sound bite from a Dawg here:
For today’s Wondering, tell me about something you had to work hard to perfect, through practice or patience, that made you excellent. I’ll start:
I’m a natural introvert. It’s baked in my DNA. One hallmark of introverts is their inability to express themselves, they’re corner huggers at parties, they’re quiet. One thing I’ll say is that beer and UGA broke me out of that. A public speaking class at UGA helped me a lot, and helped me more when the GA who taught it asked me out for a date. And my public speaking project was on the 2nd Amendment and why it was important for us to have the Right to Bear Arms.
In retrospect, I shoulda asked for a second date instead of stumping for the Amendment, but I digress. No, I don’t digress, she was as hot as a South Georgia summer under a clear blue sky beating down on rich, ripe watermelons, and I shoulda had more confidence. Ah, choices. And the life we lead. But, to this day, my remedial English class at UGA along with this fateful class has turned me into the man I am today. I wouldn’t be writing this prose without it.
Discuss, scamps.
Golf swing. Far from perfect and short game is lacking but at my level the swing itself has taken years to become reliable. This has provided me with the ability to play with anyone, anywhere and thus exposed me to more places, people and networking than anything else I could have done. On vacation Saturday I met three business opportunities and a realtor we needed.
Golf– that’s one I wish I followed through on. It’s the one sport that beat me, and I finally just gave up.
Bear Bryant is rolling over in his grave….
“Practice does not make perfect, everyone practices!!
PERFECT PRACTICE makes perfect!!”
“she was as hot as a South Georgia summer under a clear blue sky beating down on rich, ripe watermelons…”
JP, that ain’t prose…sounds like poetry to me!
