Yes, and I think I learned, in general, how to focus on anything by observing them do it. She was my first major, unattainable, love. She was just zeroed in, always, and I knew I had to learn the skill. I still can't do it to the level she does, but it's a remarkable skill to work on. Even at amateur levels, it's extremely useful.
