Did you know that 90% of all music students quit within the first year?
Why you ask??
It’s because most music teachers don’t teach students how to practice properly. This leads you, the music student in a position the can doom the future of the music industry!
In 2005, I had a student named Jacob. He was a very shy guy with enormous drive to become a killing guitarist, but the guy had no born talent. I believed in order to be great, you had to be born with talent. I was dead wrong!
I wasn’t born an Amazon Best Selling Author or had the gift for music. I had to practice my buns off for hours and had tons of failure. I had only a few years of teaching under my belt and assumed students knew what they were doing when it came to practicing. I was dead wrong again.
Jacob was struggling with his progress and I felt his frustrations and I knew he was about to quit. I had to put a stop to this ongoing situation with students. I finally analyzed what his situation and I uncovered the mystery of Jacob’s issue and here were a few.
- No specific goals.
- No plan.
- No focus.
- No metronome.
- No visualization.
I realized I needed to create a guide that can address these basic issues. The “14 Commandments of Musical Practice” assembles almost 30 years of accumulated expertise into 14 fundamental, easy-to-understand principles to becoming a true musician using any instrument. As I explain on how to practice music, learning an instrument is about much more than endless practice time.
You’ll learn:
- Why written music goals are crucial.
- How to write up a simple practice plan for success.
- How to remove distractions in practice time for improved focus.
- How to properly use the metronome for metronome haters.
- How to visualize and why visualization is important to be a great musician.
How to record and analyze your progress.
And a bonus on a super technique called “stress control training”.
After creating this new guide I finally trained Jacob on proper practice techniques and what to look for. It took him a while to implement these techniques, but finally after some misunderstandings and confusion, Jacob began to show major progress.
I thought I was going to lose him, but these new techniques saved Jacob’s musical future and it can do the same for you too.
But remember…
This book isn’t for any musician. It’s for the musicians that wants enormous success! These methods are so easy yet intense that most will quit. If that’s you, then I totally understand, it’s not for everyone.
