“One becomes a beginner after one thousand days of training, and an expert after ten thousand days of practice.”  Mas Oyama
"A teachable mindset is a prerequisite for learning."  fusionBIM
"Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit."  Aristotle
