The More You Do a Thing

The more you do a thing, you’ll find, The better that it gets. By slacking off, it’s obvious That you will have regrets. Developing a skill or else Rehearsing for a show, It’s repetition that you need To blossom and to grow. Commitment and determination Are the surefire keys To open up potential, Though to varying degrees. For only those who give their all Will bask in their success, While slackers’ outcomes will belie The efforts they profess.
