Learning From Pain

Being an autodidact has its privileges.  No one interferes.  This is a big one to me.  Being an autodidact has its disadvantages.  No one tells you when you err.  Error becomes obvious in another way.

Take exercise for example.  When shifting to new routines, you have to coach yourself. The internet helps with videos, but there’s deterioration between seeing the video and actually doing it.  Mighta been those wide grip lat pull downs or the back extensions on the exercise ball.  Not sure.

But, when added to felling a couple of trees in below zero weather, the old back began to teach a lesson in something or other.  Not sure quite what yet, but I’ll be working on it over the next few days.   Absorbing lessons is part of the autodidact experience.

Glad I have Greg for the Latin.
