"Practice makes you perfect, it is true. However, regular practice only makes you stay perfect." I read this quotation in the past and experienced the meaning of the first sentence personally. I got convinced truth of the second sentence recently when I heard about a small incidence from my friend who referred it while making me understood the importance of regular practice recognized by even great performers.
Once a famous Indian classical vocalist and a foremost exponent of Hindustani classical music and Mewati Gharana was on a visit to a place where he was requested by host local citizens to perform. Knowing the greatness of Panditaji the hosts assumed that he could perform his best anytime and went onto insist him. Panditaji was very polite and humble to refuse their request.
He said that he would not be able to perform at his best because he had not had his riyaaz on that day.
No one else could have underlined the importance of regular practice (riyaaz) better than Panditji. The greatest like him thinks, he needs regular practice to perform his Perfect best. No matter how much great you are and how many times have you performed the best in the past, you need regular practice to stay Perfect !
