Difficult things that get easier with practice:

Focus
Writing
Building
Public speaking
Saying NO
Regular exercise
Cutting out sugar
Waking up earlier
Seeing patterns in data
Customer development
Making things people want
Personal finance
Juggling

#selfcare

But don’t try to improve it all at once. Pick one or two, work on it until it’s a habit, then pick the next one. This worked for me.

Proof. 2 months ago I had never juggled in my life :). #lockdownskills

Customer interviews feel easier now too. I’ve interviewed about 100 people for my startup ideas in the last 2+ years. Earlier ones felt scripted. These days they’re more conversational (but I still get my questions in). I learned to listen better. Practice made this easier.
