I’m sure we have all heard the old saying, “Practice Makes Perfect”. We usually think of this saying as it applies to being successful or making great progress. We need to realize that our “Practice” can apply to bad habits or processes as well. The good book tells us that you reap what you sew. If you are practicing the wrong behaviors and the wrong responses, you will get really good at crushing the people and results around you.
