What if you're practicing wrong? Then you get very good at doing something wrong.
How do you best move toward mastery? To put it simply, you practice diligently, but you practice primarily for the sake of the practice itself.
The more you move in rhythm with someone, the closer you become with that person.
Practice is the path of mastery.
To love the plateau is to love what is most essential and enduring in your life.
Keep practicing, even when you seem to be getting nowhere.
