Instead of holding the yarn behind the left needle, bring it in front so it's close to you. If you forget and put the yarn behind, the stitch on your left needle will look like 2 stitches instead of 1. Don't worry about making mistakes as you work on this practice swatch. Pay attention to the mistakes you make, so you know how to prevent them in the future.

Summary: Bring the working yarn to front.


Every country girl loves to listen to and play country music.First of all,learning to play the guitar is the right way to play country music. These include watching and playing football, fishing, and Mudding. This doesn't mean they can't be girlish though! Girlishness actually complements your country girl attitude. i.e. Ford F150, GMC Sierra, Chevy S10, Bronco, Blazer. Also, if you're not in high school(or just don't want to join high school clubs, check out girl scouts or a 4H club in your area) Go outside and mow the lawn or help your dad on the car etc. The kitchen is the most sacred place in the house. Country folks love to cook from fried food, smoked food, breakfast, and dessert.

Summary: Learn the country music. Pursue activities and sports that country girls usually like. If you're old enough to drive, a truck or Jeep Wrangler is the most "country you can get," "jackin" it up too (getting lifts). If you're in high-school, take shop and/or agriculture and FFA is a good club to join too. Country people are also hard workers and love to get dirty. Learn to cook.


Ryan Leaf was going to be the next big thing. A great football quarterback, finalist for the Heisman, second-overall pick in the NFL draft. Fast forward a few years, and Leaf is considered one of the biggest busts of all time, having failed to achieve at a high level. Natural talent for playing football doesn't mean anything if you don't commit to building it into a skill. When you find your talent, think of it like a seed that you're planting. You're off to a good start, but you've still got to water it, mulch it, and weed around the edges to make sure your seed grows into a big plant. It takes work. As iron sharpens iron, so one talented person sharpens another. If you've got a talent for something, or even if you just hope to develop talent in some field, surround yourself with other talented people and model yourself after their behaviors, practice routines, and attitudes about their talent. Learn everything you can from talented people.  Find a mentor who's willing to show you the ropes and coach you in developing your new skills. Blossoming guitar players need good teachers beyond YouTube. Blossoming singers need other people to play music with. Developing your talent into a skill and your skill into an ability is going to be hard. The more you learn about a subject, a task, or an ability, the more complicated it becomes. Commit to learning everything you can about your field and challenging yourself to become a master. Turn your talent into something special. Make your talent real. Playing chess might not get easier for Magnus Carlsen, just because he’s a phenomenal player. Now he knows just how complicated the game can be. The more you learn about a game, a skill, or a field, the more there will be to learn. It never gets easy. Even if you've got no talent for the guitar, practicing two hours a day guarantees that you'll get a lot better. Someone who practices, whether it be sport, art, or any other field, will always end up more talented than someone who never picks up their instrument, picks up their paintbrush, someone who never practices. Hard work outruns ability every time.

Summary: Commit to building your talent into a skill. Find other talented people. Respect the complexity of your talent. Practice.
