Perfect Practice Makes Perfect
During one of my classes this week I was working with a new student with a couple things. I asked if he had any questions, and he replied "no, I just need to practice a lot." Don't we all? :-)
I told him it was important to practice slow and correct and then speed up as he gets better, rather than do it fast and incorrect from the beginning. I reminded him that practice makes permanent, and only perfect practice makes perfect.
Don't just go through the motions when you are practicing. Focus on what you are doing, and strive to do it the best you can each and every time.
Get out there and practice - perfectly!
