Let Your Mind Wander – Quick Practice Tip

Hi I’m Vi Wickam, and this is today’s [my] Talent Forge Quick Tip of the Week.

I have extolled the virtues of focus to you, but have I told you the value of letting your mind wander?!

It’s the truth! There is a time for letting your mind wander.

There’s a time for daydreaming. There’s a time for daydreaming on your violin, or your piano. Let your fingers wander, let your mind wander, and explore!

[…]

Because whatever comes out is sure to be fun. You’re sure to learn something. You’re sure to become more comfortable with your instrument, more comfortable with where the notes are on your instrument.

And more comfortable with the music.

Take a moment. Take 5 minutes. Let your mind wander and just explore your instrument. You won’t regret it!

That’s your Quick Tip for today. I’ll see you next week!

P.S. Here’s another Quick Tip on focus!
