Oh, I love this so much. It communicates so many important things in one go.

My kids must be absolutely sick of me saying in a dozen different ways "you just have to do it a lot."

This also reminds me of how I've often responded when people ask me about learning to code. I ask them if they're ok with sitting in front of a computer for many hours.

It sounds obvious, but most people (in my experience) simply aren't ok with that, and hadn't considered it.
