Practice makes perfect. This self-evident idiom means doing something repeatedly is the only way to become very good at it.
ReplyDeleteFor example, when we learn English, we have to learn grammar, word and so on. The most important thing may be how to put what we have learned into practice. If you only learn the grammar rules by heart and do not do enough exercises, it is certain that you cannot understand them perfectly. But if you practice a lot, maybe you will understand them more deeply and you can find some good methods of applying them. Memorizing English words whenever time permits, we can easily memorize them and can even find away to memorize them more quickly.
It is the same in the company. I am a quality assurance. I remembered when I worked in a medical device company, my supervisor gave me a lot of standards about software, hardware, electric circuit, reliability analysis and so on. As a green hand I think understand these standards was very difficult, so I told my supervisor. He told me, “you can according to these standards do more practice, I think you can understand. Please remember practice makes perfect”.
There are other countless examples in our daily life. But I think the above mentions are evident enough to illustrate the truth of the idiom. We ought to keep the idiom in mind whenever we do something new and difficult.
