SCRABBLE: Little And Often Fills The . . . .
We accumulate collections one piece at a time. We accumulate savings a few dollars at a time. We accumulate knowledge bit by bit.
When a newbie come to scrabble club for the first time and see the enormity of the OWL2, they frequently make a decision that they CAN’T learn all that . . . . and we never see them after that.
The truth is . . . every body of information is massive in its own way. Information is absorbed incrementally. There is only a very small fraction of people who become masters of anything and who are capible of learning things instantaneously.
So, when you recognize something that sparks your interest, 1) know that you can; 2) create a plan; and 3) do whatever is necessary to pursue your interest.
We don’t all learn at the same rate of speed. Some newbies learn the 101 2-Letter-Words in a few days while other require a month. Some look at the list and think that they need to learn 101 words. The reality is that most people already know more than half of the 101 words. Here are 30 that I am sure that you know: (ad, am, an, as, at, aw, be, do, go, ha, he, hi, ho, id, if, in, is, it, me, of, oh, on, ow, pa, pi, si, so, to, up, we). That leave only 71 more. Learning as few as 5 every day makes it a two week job.
Here’s the link a page on my web site designed to help you and others to learn the 2 Letter Words, along with their front and back hooks. Use it and share it freely with other scrabble players. CLICK HERE
