If you are talking about the skill that I learned from observing others, the first one which comes to my mind is probably the one that I learned by watching how my parents doing it. I am talking about communicating and making strong bonds and remembering the time when I learned it, it was a quite hard thing because I was looking in my purse and trying to figure out how they’re making strong bonds. I looked how to start dialogue, what they ask and how they communicate efficiently. And the way I practiced it was pretty simple. I just came to my school and started initiating as much conversations as I could. After a while, my ability to have conversations improved and I became more social, but it still wasn’t enough because I had a lot of mistakes and I was struggling to talk to girls. But after a while I realized that it’s way easier than it seems and I just started initiating more conversation. And after a year maybe I finally realized how to master this skill and accomplish every goal connected with it. By the end of my speech I want to say that learning skills by observing others is a really beneficial thing, especially if you’re looking at professional. Because when you’re looking at professional you’re memorizing his patterns and then repeating in your own practice. that really benefits your skill even if you’re not a professional in a specific sphere you just can look at the professional for a period of time and you’ll improve significantly. So after all I want to say that I appreciate any experience and probably I would like to have more of these experiences when I had to learn something from observing and honestly this benefits me a lot and helps me foster different parts of mind.
