Advice From A Drummer
“If you are really passionate about what you do and what you want, here’s my advice: Continue to work hard at it. Practice, practice, practice. Play and perform any chance you get, with any kind of musical genre you can. While I believe playing from your heart and soul is most important, learning to read music will also help. I recently visited a school’s music department and overheard the teacher telling his students, ‘Practice makes progress.’ I love this message. Becoming ‘perfect’ shouldn’t be the goal. Just keep trying to do your best. Growth, in and of itself, is the real goal.” -From, “The Beat Of My Own Drum” By: Sheila E
