It is better to practice a little than talk a lot

A best practice is a method or technique that has consistently shown results superior to those achieved with other means, and that is used as a benchmark. In addition, a "best" practice can evolve to become better as improvements are discovered. Best practice is considered by some as a business buzzword, used to describe the process of developing and following a standard way of doing things that multiple organisations can use.

When you are able to talk the talk, as well as walk the walk – simultaneously, you will find quality in anything you put your efforts in to. “Practice makes perfect” and “actions speak louder than words” so why stand around, some of the great artists of the 20th century have shared their thoughts on these questions.

Practicing is an art, not a skill. A skill is something you can be taught in a certain number of lessons, while an art is something you learn slowly and gradually over your entire life. Whether you are a sculptor, a painter, a ballerina or a trombonist, you have to apply discipline in order to progress. The art of practicing is something you adhere to for a very, very long time, and you must master it to become a great performer or a great person.

Practice is the key to becoming a great player. We've all seen and heard of colleagues or students who were born with amazing potential and talent, and yet because they didn't have the right psychological make-up they failed in their quest to become professionals. They hadn't mastered the art of practicing. All in all it is better to practice a little than talk a lot.

Practice! Practice! Practice makes you perfect.
