I went to a conference this weekend and one of the speakers said that you had to spend ten thousand hours doing something before you would be good at it--so if you look at it in a year--if you spend one hour a day doing something, for a year--you'd spend 365 hours. So in this speaker's estimation--it would only take you 27.4 years to get really good.
So in all this abstract estimation, I decided that I like to write. I want to write. I worry that I don't write well. Or I write tritely. Or I write silly drivel that no one else would want to read. But the important thing is that I write. So I'm going to try and commit to writing every day...
And just think..if I can get up to two hours a day.. it should only take 13.7 years to get really good.

Having read both the GC History and your blog I can unaquivicly say that you write very well. (and spell a lot better than I do, or at least look up words like unaquivicly).
I love reading your writing, its just like talking to you, only without your hands flying all over the place :)
