getting good

when you learn/you become/but before you get good at what you are learning to do/you are so bad it is embarrassing

the embarrassment makes some give up

the stubborn keep at it/embarrassments are less frequent/and begin to be interleaved/with successes

and some who are stubborn but not passionate/will give up at that point/with a self-congratulatory “mission accomplished”/and an urge to shift focus

the passionate keep at it/and pile up experience/and one fine day/there is a “beyond their wildest dreams” moment

they have done something that rewards/their day after week after month after season efforts/something worthy of peer recognition/worthy of celebration/worthy of something beyond congratulation

and that is quiet knowledge:

they know that they are Good
