__64__ to learn Tai Chi I had to learn patience. Now I've found that I'm a much more patient person than before, and Tai Chi isn't nearly as difficult as it 65 (be ) before.

　　We tend 66 (like) things we are good at -- that's normal. For example, I'm naturally very good at badminton and tennis, but I'm very bad at anything 67 involves keeping balance, such as skating, skiing and gymnastics. Tai Chi has 68 (great) improved my balance which has been a very good thing for me.

　　My point is that you can keep 69 (do) the things you know you're good at and live in your comfort zone, or you can try something new. If you don't try new things, you'll never know what it would be like to try something new to challenge 70 (you). It will definitely pay off in the end.
