Music to the Ears - A Lesson on Perserverance

I've finally gotten my hymm to sound almost like a hymm, except for the bits of lag here and there... think of it like.. bandwidth choking!

I'm pretty happy because I've no formal piano training and I somehow managed to make this Eflat Hymm sound vaguely familiar!

Key Facts

* Took 3 months

* 10 minutes a day

* Sounded like crap for 1 month. Just kept at it.

* Didnt stress myself on the outcome.

* Only focused on doing it 10 minutes a day.

I've been really busy (as most of you know), but I also wanted to play this song. So, I decided that every day, I sure put a few minutes into practicing it. I was absolutely sure that even if I didnt have energy to concentrate fully, I can still make it work.

If a little dripping droplet of water on the same spot, can create a crater in a cement floor; anything can be achieved with consistent effort (however small).

EVEN if you don't think there is improvement, keep on going at it, and somehow it WILL become right. Your mind will find its way out.

You only lose when you stop!
