Last week I had to learn a new song for my fiddle playing which I really did NOT like
....disliked it so much that I would postpone my practicing....when I realized that I could go to something else that I really liked and then if I had any "energy" left I would tackle the "disliked" song... I picked up one of my mom's favorite songs to learn and each time I was finished practicing I would actually try the "dreaded" song. Well guess what...the dreaded song is coming along...slowly but it is coming along...I just did not make it my priority anymore...and thank God my instructor understands!
(In case you are wondering....the new fiddle tune was/is "900 miles" but not the simple version...the terribly hard, complicated, awful,tiresome verstion!!!
