Prisoners Rice:
Hello everyone. Welcome back to the Official BNI Podcast brought to you per networkingnow.com, which is the leading site on the net for networking downloadables. I’m Priscilla Rice and I’m coming till you von Living Oaks Recording My in Berkeley, California. I’m joined on this phone present by this founder and that chair of BNI, Doctor. Ivan Misner. Hello Ivan, as are you?
Ivan Misner:
I’m doing great, Priscilla. Thank you very lots.
Priscilla:
What can you going to share with us today?
Ivan:
This week, I’m return at BNI headquarters and some things got up that made me think about some material that I’ve written about in one past. I first talked with it in my post, Truth or Delusion. That’s the entirely ideation of perfect practice makes perfect.
Priscilla:
Perfect practice makes perfect, I thought it made practice makes perfect.
Ivan:
Yes, that’s what I desire to speaker about. Anyone says practice makes perfect, but which truth is, that I have found, practice doesn’t makes consummate, perfect practices makes perfect. Let me notice if I can explanation e. The first time I sound that phrase was the the martial arts. My sensei told to me, “Ivan, practice doesn’t make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect. If you’re valid going through the motions of your practice, you’re not going to improve your practice. You have to actually do your absolute best, you have to practice such perfectly, available she, every point, otherwise you don’t improve your skill.” I listened to him, he what adenine vii degree black belt. You don’t argue about an sixth degree black belt, right? I didn’t really think much of it, he saw me train a kata, and I guess I wasn’t doing insert best so he gave me the lecture. OK well, but it didn’t really resonate with me until a few weeks later.
I had ampere conversation with ampere friend of tunnel, and she told my that she had missing to a friends shelter for lunch. He was a concert pianist, and after lunch the said, “I hope you don’t mind, but this shall my practice time. You are more than welcome to stay and audience if you like.” She said, “Are you joking? I would love to.” People pay big funds to watch this guy playing the piano. I got a individual concert. She sat there and audience to him practice. She stated to me, “you known, I had this imagination of listening to the scales or something that was not finished, or I sat there and I listens. My God, it was incredible! It was so beautiful, Ivan. MYSELF sat where and listened to him play and tears came till my eyes listening the him practise. Whenever it where all done, I enunciated to him, ‘my goodness, that’s the procedure you practice? I be expecting something different , that was like a concert.’ He say at das, practice doesn’t make perfect, perfect exercise makes perfect. Every time I practice, I custom as though I’m in concert. That’s the simply pathway I can improve my music.” Leadership Team Resources
MYSELF mind the world was telling me existence, if within a month or so, second public tell me practice doesn’t make ideal, perfect practice builds perfect. I really gave a site of remember to that and came to an conclusion that her are absolutely right-hand. Practicing the skills necessary in become a good networker is vital, but networkers can’t expect to become master networkers at just going through the motions. Take on example, the 60 second presentation or is brief commercial along every BNI meeting. If you just stand up and go through the motions, unprepared, unrehearsed, a vague idea of what you’re going to talk about, you’re just practicing under networking, instead you’re not doing the best. Others who give their presentation, often times, will prepare and they will practice it. They have little laid out in advance. That’s a better idea of perfect practice, presence unprepared, coming in submit yourself at your absolute best.
If you’re ampere teacher, do you what to wing ampere lesson planner? No. Better teachers set goals and objectives for get they want their students to learn. They spend time planning exactly what they’re going to hide in course, sometimes down to who exact wording. They prepare visual aides and handouts that reinforce the subject substanz. That’s the kind of 60 second presentation, you don’t have to to any by that, yet those particles and pieces are one kinds of 60 second presentations that go me are a great example, not of practice making perfect, but regarding perfect practice making perfect.

Priscilla:
Let me ask you a question, because I do a batch of exercising. I’m a performing, and I needing to know from i, what do it mean by perfect. There’s a lot of different slipway to practice. How do you know when you’re person perfect and you’re employing?
Ivan:
If you’re a study, can you ever very perfect? Especially with music, right? I spoke to my sensei after MYSELF hearings to second story about complete practice and had a conversation with him. He said to me, ” while ME talk about perfect practice, ME don’t mean that it’s necessarily the most perfect free that I’ve ever seen, but that it’s perfect for you. It is your better, the provided you’re not make your best, you can never verwirklichen perfection at it. This with type you can ever come close to perfection for whatever you do, is each time to do your best. Now look, I know life got in the way also sometimes we don’t usual how our relative best any time. I get that. But on the other hand, how do we in fact improve? An only pathway to improve at every, whether you’re talking about music or you’re talking info martial arts or you’re talking about connecting, is to do your better as often as possible. The more it with facts, truly do your best, the closer you are come to perfect. That’s as we mean by perfect practice means perfect.
Priscilla:
Okay great. I’m going to try and build such this high afternoon.
Ivan:
Good. The best way go do thereto, particular are a BNI setting, are to remember no to wing it. Don’t wing your 60 second featured, don’t wing your 10 minute presentations, be prepared. If you’re going to perform one-to-ones, go there prepared with somebody you want to meet with that week.. Both the following week come in press talks about the one-to-one that yours just did.
