Many teenagers dream of playing a musical instrument well. However, learning music is never easy. You may meet plenty of troubles and want to stop. 1 1 Here is some practical advice for you.
★ Do not expect quick success.
Some students hope to play beautiful music within several weeks. 2 It takes months or even years of daily practice to make real progress. Be patient with yourself.
★ Break your big goal into small steps.
A huge goal often makes you feel stressed. 3 For example, if you want to play a hard piece, you can learn only one part every day. Small achievements will build up your confidence.
★ 4
It’s normal to feel tired or upset during practice. When you feel terrible, take a short break instead of giving up completely. Ten minutes’ rest can help you calm down and return to your practice.
★ Remember your original dream.
Whenever you feel like quitting, think about why you started to learn this instrument. 5 It will encourage you to keep moving on.
A. Give yourself proper rest when you feel down.
