FUN COMPARISONS AND DESCRIPTIVES IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE...

Everyone has heard the sayings, adages, proverbs about studying things. Certain methodologies over time have produced acceptable results and have become a de-facto standard. Other methods, not so much so. The "studying" of methods has caused a certain proverb to remain highly visible over the years. That proverb is frequently quoted as a "wise" saying and a more or less "universal truth".

"Practice makes perfect"

However, that proverb fails to consider the possibility that the individual 'practicing' may not be replicating the method or process exactly.

Hence the corollary came into usage. I would contend that it is a more practical way to train, and produces infinitely better results.

"Practice does not make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect."
