My sister has been sewing and making amazing dresses for a long time now.
For all those years and till date, she had always offered to teach me like a million times but, I never showed interest.
I remember this time I finally agreed to learn but guess what, I showed up at her space with a pillow and blanket.
She gave this sarcastic laughter and I did too because deep down, I knew I wasn’t serious.
Anytime she has a lot of work, she always wish I could help.
There was this time she traveled for months and I had an event to attend plus, I needed an outfit.
I don’t know how to control a sewing machine or even cut a fabric. I had chances to learn but I wasn’t interested.
Few weeks back, she was working on some dresses and she gave me a scissors and a fabric to help cut out some petals.
It was a very easy thing to do but I couldn’t do it and then I realized we only get better at things when we put in more effort and show some level of interest.
My story balls down to ourselves as humans.
There are things we do effortlessly and see results immediately but, there are things we put more effort in but because the interest we have in it is very low, we do not always get it right or see the kind of results we need.
Our Jobs, businesses, skills, friendships, relationships, projects, and so many other things suffer at some point because the interest we should have on them is not there.
Interest makes one wants to learn, explore, and express creativity in different spheres.
You get to connect with people with shared interest as you.
You develop new interests, you always become eager to show the world what you can do, what you’ve learnt, and how you could solve problems through your creativity.
It’s never too late to explore or learn.
Be intentional about it.
Do not be afraid or feel timid out there.
YOU CAN DO IT RIGHT❤️
