When you know how to stay focused and recover from distractions, you can eliminate the frustrations of learning.

It may seem a little strange to address the topic of staying focused on learning how to read crochet patterns but humor me for a minute. We live in a world that’s full of wonderful and not-so-wonderful distractions. This is okay for us to work around when we’re doing something we already know how to do – cooking dinner, laundry, our work routine – but it’s detrimental to our success to have distractions when learning something new.

I’m going to give you the excuse to crochet every day or at least a few times every week. Doing so will make sure that you’re on the road to meeting your goal – learning how to read patterns and/or diagrams. Throughout our session today, I’ll share three very important things you must know to put all the skills we’ve learned to use. I’ll share strategies I use to stay focused when I’m working on projects, how to get help when you need it, and how to get back on track when you do get pulled away.
