Really nice quote. Short, yet eloquent and easily applicable to just about everything. Who said it, do you know?

apparently is a navy seal quote

Beer is proof that God wanted us to be happy.

But I heard that vodka drinks you?

isn't getting it right the same as never getting it wrong?

Paroxysm · Thu, 14th-Feb-2013, 2:08 PM

Not really. Getting it right doesn't necessarily happen more than once. Conversely, never getting it wrong means that you never get it wrong.

This is the issue I have with kids these days. They think that since they got something right once they do not have to practice it again. Just because you got it once does not mean you will get it again.

An example of this would be a combo in something like Street Fighter. You could pull it off once in training, but never manage it in a game. Sure you have done it before, but it is not useful in an actual match. If you have practiced it enough that you can do it without thinking about execution, ie. this is what I want to do instead of this is how I am going to do this, then you are a professional.

Haha Kez, fair enough.

It just gets to me sometimes. My job tends to involve getting kids to practice things.

It's alright. He makes them practice until they get it right. EVERY TIME.

RuineD · Thu, 14th-Feb-2013, 3:33 PM

what i was saying is that my idea of getting it right would be to never get it wrong - aka be good.

appreciate the condescension, however.
