Top practice tips No.3 - Slow down and do it again Top practice tips No.3 - Slow down and do it again

There’s a lot to be gained from treating yourself like a toddler. Don’t assume you’re smart enough to absorb new information on the first pass (or even the 50th). 

Slow down and do it again. You’ll feel the benefit later on.
