Monday Motivation: Practicing Edition
“Practice isn’t the thing you do once you’re good. It’s the thing you do that makes you good.”
-Malcolm Gladwell in Outliers, p. 42
In a little departure from our usual Monday Motivation fare, we feature Michael Fogler giving a lecture at the CCM Guitar Workshop. The primary focus of the lecture is practicing, and you’ll find a summary on Fogler’s “teaching” page on his website (a great PDF file with 20 practicing tips).
Connect with Michael Fogler on Facebook or The Classical Guitar Network or buy his CD on CD Baby.
