We often start something without knowing all we need to get started – that’s ignorance, and it needs to be accepted as the first step in learning. It’s good to know what you don’t know. The only way we’re going to begin to overcome that is being curious – digging deeper to find and learn what we need to know. Discovery is the best part of every challenge. And the more you learn the more competent you’ll be – given the opportunity to practice, your competence will morph into confidence. When that happens, you can start putting your personality into whatever you’re doing. Then all that’s left is the hard work to turn it into success – a finished product, satisfied customers, and a sense of accomplishment. Big or small, this happens regularly. Professionals do this every day. And since every day brings its own set of issues and challenges, there’s always work to be done. Start with a little curiosity and work your way to success today.
Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835 – 1910): American writer, humorist, and essayist known by his pen name Mark Twain. He was praised as the "greatest humorist the United States has produced".
