Ways of Struggling...

Just randomly pick a book from the bookshelf and randomly pick a chapter to read, quite fit my feelings at the moment. Here are some extracts from "The Art of Practising" by Madeline Bruser:

"....musicians are harder on themselves than dancers or actors, and have a more difficult time with their work. This is partly because musicians work primarily alone, and when they eventually play for an audience it is overwhelming.

Also, performing music requires extreme precision. Because of the need for this precision, musicians are also more susceptible to noticeable memory lapses than other performers. They are afraid of "blanking out" or making blunders in front of an audience."

I can never be a musician just I want to play good music.

Hope I can spare some time out to read more chapters on these public holidays.
