Dance

You do realize everybody that pulls off great dance moves, practices for long stretches behind closed doors right.

You do realize that even within dance moves, there is a lot of improvisation right.

You do realize that the best dancers allow the beat to lead right.

You do realize that knowing when to go slow, when to stop and when to speed it up is dictated by those watching right.

You keep wondering when you will own the dance floor, while those you envy are using that time to practice.

Everyone can dance. Yes, I said it, everyone can dance. Not everyone wants to practice though. Because there are no cheers, claps, or praise during practice. Practice has no glamour. It is just a difficult, ugly and slow process that does not guarantee magic.

Until you start to enjoy practice behind closed doors, you cannot own any dance floor.
