Okay, what a day today was! The feeling in my gut this morning was something I have never experienced before in my entire life... today was the day I sat - and passed - my practical driving lesson. And, what makes this moment even greater is that I passed first time round with only two minors (16 minors or more and you fail!). As soon as Leroy (my examiner) turned around and said 'And I'm happy to say that you've passed' my immediate reaction was 'You're kidding, right?!' I really was not expecting to pass, especially after one of my manoeuvres was the reverse around a corner which I have always sucked at. Nonetheless, I did it to perfection.
So, what did I learn from today? Well, firstly, how incapable I am at controlling nerves. More importantly, I learnt that to succeed, you have to be part of the moment. You need to be present with what you are doing and by doing so you become truly aware of what is going on around you and are therefore able to process your thoughts clearly and logically. Try it. Hooray for revelations!
