Once You’ve Gotten Started…
So you’re started juggling, and, as with anything else, it takes practice. It took me about six months of practicing before I could juggle three balls, but some people can get in down in about a week. I found that I was better if I had something to distract me, such as music or TV. If I didn’t have one of those things I would loose interest quickly. This may not be true for you, but it helps for some people. Another thing that I found is that I had to be in a good mood. If I’m not, then I get annoyed really quickly. So, before you start practicing, clear you mind and let the bean bags do the rest.
Here are some questions that are often asked.
Where should I juggle?
Anywhere you can. If you have something to juggle and a few minutes , you should at least try. It’s new to you, and the only way you’ll get good is if you practice.
Why should I juggle?
Everybody has different reasons. They want a fun hobby, they love the circus and want to join it, or they just saw the circus and were awed!
What is the secret to juggling?
Secret? There’s only one secret I know, and it’s to practice. I know that’s what I keep saying, but there’s really nothing else I can tell you.

Leah,
Your suggestion to have something distracting going on while practicing is a good one. I often have music playing, or the TV on when I’m trying to learn a number of things. For example, my daughter has been (virtually) killing me in the video game Tekken. Sometimes, when she’s not home, or asleep, I’ll spend a bit of time practicing with my iPod on.
As is consistently the case, I’m impressed with what you’re doing, so I put a ClustrMap on for you.
Great job.
P.S. I also took off the midterm reflection.

I love to hear that I can help.
