Do you ever feel like you’ll never be as good as the other musicians you admire? Comparing yourself to others can make practice stressful and disheartening, especially if you’re self-taught or exploring new musical paths.

In today’s video, I’ll show you how to use other musicians as mirrors to discover your own unique voice on your instrument. You’ll learn a practical exercise to reflect on what you admire in others, and what makes your playing special and unmistakably yours.

You’ll also get a relaxation exercise at the end to help you enter a calm, focused, and productive space for your music practice.
