What Swimming and Fondant Modeling Have in Common?
I learned two completely different skills in two completely different ways: swimming and making fondant figures.
Learning to swim took me about two years.
I stopped and started again many times.
I got sick.
My daughter got sick.
My period came.
Some days I just didn’t feel like going to the pool.
Other days the weather was perfect for a walk in the park instead of chlorine and laps.
Life kept happening, and progress was slow, interrupted, and messy.
But I kept going back.
Learning to model fondant figures was the opposite.
In 2017 I was obsessed with becoming good at it.
I practiced every free minute I had—literally.
When my daughter was sleeping, I was modeling.
When my husband took her for a walk, I was modeling.
I did this for months, intensely and consistently, until my hands could do exactly what my mind imagined.
Confidence came fast because practice was constant.
What’s the same in both stories?
I didn’t QUIT!
That’s the most important part.
Not the speed.
Not the method.
You can learn something fast, with intense practice.
You can learn something slowly, with pauses, because that’s what life allows you to do.
Both ways are valid.
Both ways work.
The only thing that doesn’t work is giving up.
How you choose to learn is entirely up to you—and whichever way you choose is the right one, as long as you don’t stop.
With all my love
