Remembering your beginnings...

Remember when you first started your instrument??  Was it hard?  Did you know what to do with it?  How to play it?  Where do you blow?  Where do you put your fingers?
When learning new skills, new music, new everything remember it wasn't easy to start in the first place so keep at it as you will get it with work.  Famed flutist said it best,  "If it's worth doing it's worth doing well."

    Why?

    I've always been interested in practicing.  How to get the best results.  I have never wanted to practice for hours on end - I have way too much to do (want to do, rather do, need to do, etc.).  I hope these posts give some good ideas on ways to make practicing easier, if not fun and inspiring.
