Proficiency
My 10 year old daughter knows many things that I did not know at her age. And I find her constantly surprising me with things that make me go like… Wow! She is smart and intelligent! One of those proud dad moments!!! 😀
The other day I asked her “how much is 12 times 14”? She struggled for a couple of minutes and then finally answered… “168”. Someone else may have been able to give me the same answer in 10 seconds or less. Now does that make my daughter less smart than this other person?
Proficiency is being able to do something very well and very quickly.
This is not about intelligence as much as it is about practice….
Read a lot, bring it into your experience and do it many times!!! And as easy as it might sound, it calls for a lot of patience, persistence and maturity…
Are you good at what you do and are you fast???
