Have the mentality that there are MORE opportunities you have yet discovered. Don't let yourself become trapped by concepts, and certainly don't self-censor yourself (Political Correctness is bad).

When I write, it is pleasurable! When I lift weights, it is insanely fun! Photography and art-creation is endlessly fascinating to me.

When we follow the ethos 'practice makes perfect', we end up getting suckered somewhere. Why? We aim for perfection; we don't do the practice for the sake of it.

\n

'Practice is pleasure' is better as a notion. It keeps us motivated to practice, because the practice in itself is fun!
