“Wow, It Just Comes Natural for You”

Everyone has an agenda. Everyone has goals they’re striving towards. Everyone has different skills they would like to develop.

What can you do that is now second nature and does not require much thinking?

Maybe there are a number of things that you can do seemingly naturally.

People say sometimes that it seems like things come naturally. What sorts of things?

Maybe a chef can cook “naturally”

Maybe an athlete can perform “naturally”

Maybe a comic can tell jokes “naturally”

But I see it totally the other way around…

I think that for the large majority of those people, it’s practiced and built — not bought.

Cultivated.

Cultivate: Try to acquire or develop (a quality, sentiment, or skill).

The key is — the most successful people do not just try… they actually do it.

It catches me off guard when people think that my conversational abilities and my networking are natural.

I have to remind myself that people didn’t know me when I was a teenager and barely spoke.
