Heard of the 80/20 balance? How it ...I hear you. <br /><br />Heard of the 80/20 balance? How it takes 20% effort to get 80% competency and 80% effort to get past that last 20%. I think the numbers are bogus, but the idea makes sense to me. <br /><br />My sister and I are only 1 year apart and we were always compared to each other. I have always been the more talented one, the quicker learner, the one who excelled in school without needing to try. She was slower, but she was a lot more hardworking. Our piano teacher would comment on how she worked harder and was more consistent, but I was naturally talented and didn't try very hard. I was lazy. <br /><br />When we went to college, I slacked off and she got good grades. I quit school, she's graduated and has a good job. It's the hard work and dedication that matters in the end. <br /><br />I'd always taken pride in my talents, but the truth is, if that is something you are born with, you can't take any credit for it. It's what you do with it that counts.Feihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04289385334453931872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1889461718563629039.post-81653759813433769232010-10-05T08:37:49.632-06:002010-10-05T08:37:49.632-06:00oh my gosh. i love this post. i will have to write...oh my gosh. i love this post. i will have to write more later, but i just couldnt wait to tell you(because my opinion means so much to you, i know)how i love what you have written here. seriously.<br /> ps-i have always hated rush, but when i hear it when i come to your blog,i like it. weird.singlemormonchickhttp://www.singlemormonchick.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
