Pratice makes perfect, huh.

I am 35. Probably a bit old to start something new :-). My big problem
is keeping up enthusiasm for more that 30 minutes or so. I know I should
pratice 1-2 hours at a time (I get good improvement after a 1/2 hour or
so), but I get bored with falling off.

I rember that when learning some of the harder juggling tricks (5 balls,
club back crossed) that long pratice session payed off (> 30 minutes), if
I could just force myself to continue. Mind you, 5 balls took me a year at
3-4 hours a week to learn.
