Quite a musing!

Does Living Close to Your Destination Make You Late? A Very Small Experiment

• “I would really love to hear more of your comments on Ericsson’s paper on “deliberate practice.” I even tried it out and it worked! I play the piano, and I was really lagging back on my preparation for Trinity College of Music London’s Advanced Certificate in Solo Piano Exam. I came across the term “deliberate practice” somewhere on the Internet. I Googled it, got the paper, read it and tried implementing. I practiced motifs and passages that gave me trouble, “deliberately,” and I could see the improvements within days! It has now given me the confidence to prepare for the Licentiate of Trinity College of Music London (LTCL), Solo Piano. Thank you Professor Ericsson!”

Off not too late, just got the Ericsson paper (The Role of Deliberate Practice in the Acquisition of Expert Performance) from here (pdf)!! Will it work for me? Or will I make it work for me? Or will it make me to work for what I wanted to do? Crukk the words!!
