Learning a skill is rarely a straight line. For a while, nothing seems to change. You practice, you make the same mistakes, and the numbers barely move. Then, one day, something clicks, and a task that used to take all your attention happens almost by itself.⏎
Researchers who study practice often describe this as moving from thinking to doing. At first, every step needs a decision. Later, the steps link together into larger movements, and your attention is free for the bigger picture.⏎
Typing follows the same path. In the beginning, you hunt for each key. Then you find letters without looking, then whole words, and finally phrases that seem to type themselves. The plateaus along the way are not failures. They are where the next step is being built.⏎
So keep going, even when progress feels slow. A few focused minutes most days will take you further than an occasional long session. And when the next click comes, you will know exactly where it came from.
