Mastery & Practice

I read this quote in an email from Santa Fe Creative Tourism about what the late Martha Graham, dancer and choreographer, had to say about the importance of practicing.

In each, it is the performance of a dedicated precise set of acts, physical or intellectual, from which comes shape of achievement, a sense of one’s being, a satisfaction of spirit. One becomes, in some area, an athlete of God. Practice means to perform, over and over again in the face of all obstacles, some act of vision, of faith, of desire. Practice is a means of inviting the perfection desired. ” Well said, Martha!Release
