If you're into that "10,000 hours to mastery" heuristic, I absolutely put in those hours. It's "easy" now but it wasn't always.</p><p>But at least it's not as funny as when people compliment me on the state of my house and I'm all like, "hiring a housekeeping service is the secret to a happy marriage" 😅</p><p><a href="https://social.afront.org/tags/PublicSpeaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PublicSpeaking</span></a> <a href="https://social.afront.org/tags/compliments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>compliments</span></a> <a href="https://social.afront.org/tags/LifeTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LifeTips</span></a></p>

PhoenixSerenity<p>One of my fave <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/compliments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>compliments</span></a> from a new friend, ever: "Hanging out with you, especially in nature, reminds me of how magical life is. I never thought one leaf was that amazing before. Your passionate, childlike nature &amp; incredible joy expressed, over noticing the simple things that most people I've known have never ever noticed, has brought out the childlike spirit in me! In just 2 hrs with you, I've learned more than I have in 50 yrs of life &amp; formal education."</p><p>That made my whole month 🥰❤</p>
