Recognizing the small steps
November 15, 2006 | 8:15 pmWhen we learn something new, it is often important to find the small steps we can take towards the goal and patiently take them one at a time. Many times we cannot directly jump to the goal, even if we use all of our will-power or strength. This evening I was thinking of trivialities like improving my swimming technique or learning to juggle. We can learn much more than we think, if we just have the motivation, the patience and know the small steps. My daughter learned how to juggle a while ago and the key for her was that someone pointed out to her how start with one ball and then then step by step move forward. Now she is juggling and it looks really cool!











Hello dad!
I can’t escape thinking about all the times in my first year in high school when you so patiently helped me with my mathematics. It felt so difficult and I just couldn’t get it. You learned me not to worry, but think again and solve problems in SMALL STEPS. In a while math became my favorite subject.
Thanks for always loving and supporting me!
