One of the coolest things I've heard today.

Here's what worked for me: drive nothing but a stick for about a week. Yes, you'll screw up. And yes, you might look stupid a few times. But if that's all you let yourself work with, you'll find that you get better a helluva lot faster than if you just do it when you feel like it. Necessity has a funny way of making people better.
