He told me, "Little by little, your fingers will remember the keys." He was always patient when I was trying to play a difficult song. I followed his advice. I practiced for fifteen minutes every day. Little by little, I became more patient and my skills improved. Now, I no longer feel angry when I make a mistake. Instead, I calmly try again. I learned that patience is the key to learning anything new.
