This is a good blog post. But it could be about anything, and I encourage you to treat it as such (although the idea of doing this with Math is probably something many of could more or less directly use). Stupid example. I live in a single family house. When we moved in, the yards (front/back) were full of weeds. By weeding for 1/2 an hour a week, I cleaned the front out of weeds. What was insurmountable without chemical assistance turned into a few minutes of digging in dirt (which I enjoy). Now I have a weed free lawn, which I enjoy with my family all the time (grass stains are bad, but we get this dandelion thing that stains permanently at the slightest touch). I became a foosball whiz (ok, I've seen real whizzes, and I'm not one, but . . . let's say a 'local whiz') by practicing 15-30 minutes a day. The only real trick is working out a way to want to engage in that activity in a sufficiently 'serious' way on a regular basis. Which is why I have a nice lawn and am good at foosball rather than, say, being good at a musical instrument.
