This is the result after 6 lessons. Do you think I should continue or quit?

I've been trying to change some habits to build more efficient and healthier routines. One of the biggest changes I've made this month is to start practicing in the morning. • I've found that I'm more productive (at least when it comes to the violin🎻) at this time of the day, even though I have less time to practice. Quantity does not always represent quality! • What time of day do you prefer to practice? What do you do to be more productive?

On this day, 5 years ago, I took my first violin lesson with Lumière, the violin! I was 27 years old and at that time, I honestly didn't think I would be able to learn, after all I was too old for that! . Now Beren and I still have a lot to learn, I often feel frustrated and think about giving up. But music is part of me now and brings me a lot of joy, so I can say: 𝓘'𝓶 𝓪 𝓿𝓲𝓸𝓵𝓲𝓷𝓲𝓼𝓽!! And I'm very proud of my journey and everything I've achieved in those 5 years. . Thank you for joining us here on Instagram and YouTube and being a part of these adventures! .

"All progress takes place outside the comfort zone"😊 Practicing at the 3rd position.😅 I'm still frustrated by slow ability to read the 3rd position notes faster and get the right intonation and put my fingers on the right notes faster. 💪That is the situation. FOR NOW. 😤 However,  im sure with deliberate practice i will be able to master it eventually. 💪😊 It's similar to when i was starting to learn how to play the violin and the first position notes.  I must break through my comfort zone and practice doing things that are not comfortable.  Being comfortable with the first position may make me feel good, and have a secure and happy feeling but it doesnt allow me to grow and learn more about the things i need to learn about the violin.  Just like when i was beginning to play the violin, it wasn't comfortable, i was frustrated and sometimes skipped practice when i didn't felt like practicing. 🙈✌Everything is uncomfortable at the beginning but I did stick with it, and disciplined myself to continue even when I'm not in the mood, then eventaully i did slowly get better. 😁 The only time you can actually grow is when you are outside your comfort zone.  It doesnt matter where you are starting from, what matters is you are willing to learn. 😁 #violin #violinist #violinbeginner #violinplayer #music #musician #comfortzone #continuousimprovement #deliberatepractice #3rdposition #outsidecomfortzone #continuetolearn #discipline #determination #practice #violinpractice #deliberatepractice https://www.instagram.com/p/Bud244kgf5Z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=74vfoyll2xc2

"People are capable, at any time in thier lives, of doing what they dream of"-Paulo Coehlo It is  never too late for adults to be play the violin. Or do whatever they dreamt of doing. 😁💪 I was one of the few? or more people who used to believe that given the difficulty in  learning the violin, if you missed it when when you were young, then you were better off doing something easier. 😏 First of all, we should't compare our learning abilities to those of the kids. I think it's just that some of our belief systems have been so ingrained that we tend to be paralyzed by it. An example is that adults have a more brittle hand which is somehow true but then i decided not to let that deter me from accomplishing something i really want. 😁😊 I am learning the violin because i want to. When i was in high school, ive always imagined myself holding the violin and playing to an instrumental music. I play the violin simply because of the self-propelling passion that comes from choice, the will to continue and persevere despite the hard lessons and techniques i need to learn, because it was what I wanted more than anything.😍 Furthermore, learning the violin has taught me more about patience and persistence and not go for immediate gratification. I am rather surprised by my perseverance and determination to still continue despite the long journey ahead of me.  Don’t ever let age hold you back in deciding to start to learn to play! I picked up my first violin 2 years ago, and i am having a great time learning to play and playing the simple songs that i can play.  I still have a LOT to learn about playing the violin, and while i am learning, it is a daily source of recreation and a source of self expression. 😁 #violin #violinplayer #violinist #violinselfie #violinbeginner #persistence #perserverance #motivation #violinpractice #deliberatepractice #selfexpression #ageisjustanumber #music #musician #strings #fun #cello #art #classicalmusic #violins #iloveviolin #determination #perseverance #violinist #violonista #agedoesntmatter #risetothechallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/BtoC07Wgj8l/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4eskrukluc7a
