A wise sage once shared with me the secret to being a stress free man, he said every job requires– The Four T’s.

The third T: Talent

When asked the secret to his success as a one of the best pitchers to ever play the game of baseball, Nolan Ryan didn’t give credit to genetics, or “clean livin.” He simply said “technique.” He never forgot the basics and he studied how he could consistently repeat a desired outcome. Shaqule O’neal may not be the best free-throw shooter in the NBA but I bet he out performs me based on the fact that he shoots more free-throws than I do. And, if you want to be like the pros and drive a nail in one swing of the hammer, you have to pound a lot of nails.

I have a good friend has taught me that anyone can do anything they just haven’t learned how yet. Will gets an idea that he’d like to do something, like – say a strip wood canoe. I’d known him, at this point for 8 years and I didn’t even know if the kid had ever been on the water. But he had a policy, he would read 3 books on the subject, buy the materials and start working. The process wouldn’t be perfect but he kept working at it until he had his canoe and a new set of skills to take to the next job.

2 Timothy 2:15
Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
