Hello everyone,
I hope you all are doing fine. As a person progresses through life, they come across various things and try to understand them. Just like a child observes things around them and then tries to learn from them, "How can I do that?" And then that child keeps learning different things throughout their life. But here we are talking about practical things like walking, running, driving, swimming, and much more.

Learning some things is very easy, but some things are very difficult. Perhaps it also depends on the person how much time they take to learn something and how difficult it is for them to learn it. So, let me give you examples from my life of two different things.
Whistling
This might seem a bit strange to you, but it's true. When I was in 8th grade, many of my classmates used to whistle loudly on many occasions. I enjoyed listening to it, but I thought it must be very difficult, so I never tried to learn it. But when they whistled every day, one day I asked a friend to teach me. He told me to put one finger under my tongue and blow hard. Nothing happened the first time, so he gave me some other practices to try.
I spent the whole day at home practicing and by night, I had gotten the hang of it a little. The next day, my whistling was the loudest in the class. All my friends were surprised that until yesterday I didn't know how to do it, and today I was whistling so loud. They were all amazed that I had learned it so quickly, while some of my friends who are still struggling with it.

Swimming
Where a person quickly learns some things, there are also some things that are quite difficult for them to learn. For me, one of those things is swimming. I developed a love for swimming in the 10th grade and I joined special coaching classes for it. But due to an incident during that time, I had to leave the coaching classes, and later on, I used to go swimming with someone who knew how. But I always felt a strange fear.
Even though my cousin taught me to swim with a life jacket on, I still had a fear that when I went fully into the water, I might sink. This fear didn't let me learn properly. I practiced for about a month and then managed to do a little. But swimming in the proper way, It seemed quite a difficult task. In my 12th grade once I was standing on the edge of a lake, and when my phone fell into the lake, I immediately jumped in without thinking and retrieved it. Even though I wasn't a very good swimmer, I managed to find my phone and come back out. After that day, my fear of water disappeared to a great extent. It's a fact that when someone has a need, they can run faster than a cheetah.
After looking at these two different situations, one where i learned the whistling and second one where hardly but in the end i became a swimmer make one thing clear for me. I am a person who is curious about things and want to learn them asap. Also the swimming incident reveals that i am someone who won't hesitate to take necessary action in the time of need without caring about anything.
I also want to leave a little piece of advice here that do not think of what the outcome is, if you want to do it, just do it. It is a common slang in our mother tongue which is
"سوچی پیا تے بندا گیا"
This means that if you are thinking on doing something a lot of negative things about that thing will come in your mind and you might not do that. But an instant action can help you complete what you want.
Well, that's all from my side.
GOODLUCK AND BEST WISHES 👌
