I think that talent is what drives you to start playing and motivates you to practice.And practice does the rest

Absolutely!! I tend to look at some of your hardest lessons and think, if he can do it, I can do it !! Of course it might take me all year to perfect, but does that really matter? Not in my books A positive mental attitude is half the battle Absolutely Matt! And have one thing on your mind, I've been playing for 14 year so far with really intensive routine back in days,6-7 hours per day or som. So it's just about how hard you're giving yourself and don't count a lot on talent. -------------------- Youtube

I do believe in Talent, but in much smaller measures and maybe even in a different outlook. I have seen kids on the news in the past that had a very natural gift for music. When I say natural gift, I am describing playing Mozart symphonies or what not at a VERY low age on piano or something like that. However that does not explain my point. You could spend your whole life, watching others achieve greatness. You might not try to reach their level because you believe they are simply "Talented". When In reality, all that time you spent in awe by their skills could have been spent practicing hard to achieve their level of musical greatness. I do believe some people get things faster then others but I do not believe that should prevent anyone from trying to reach their level. The word Talent is very general. I believe in our time it is used so much that It becomes an Excuse for those who have yet to reach the level of other Musical "Talents". I however like to think others are "Talented", that way I work harder to one day have someone refer to me as "Talented". I used the word as motivation, and I dont think it should be anything more than that. Motivation is the word,yes. -------------------- Youtube

Here's what I've experienced.
I have few students on private lessons. They all work pretty hard I must say but some of them have faster progress comparing to others. So I asked them few questions,between the lines of course and here's what I've found. Those who progress fast are those who are really trying to learn and understand things. And those who are lacking with progress are usually trying to impress someone with the playing. So it's once again about motivation as far as I can see. They all have motivation of course but some of them have wrong cause of motivation. -------------------- Youtube
