Very profound.

I agree, music is art, not a competition.

Yet another brilliant advice from you, Daniel ^^
And so true. Find your own style, and don't be "The Next Kirk Hammet", for example.. Personally, I get motivated by people that's better then me. When I see the Muris, Kristofer, David, either of the Marcuses.. or any of the instructors here, I say to myself: "Yes! Yes! Give me more! Play something sick!"

Great advices and thoughts Daniel,thanks!!
Tho I would add that sometimes it IS good to compare yourself with other players,good players of course. Not to realize how bad are you eventually but to get more motivation to practice/play and to learn some new stuff. And as the time goes,you'll find your own signature and way to express your music thoughts and ideas. This post has been edited by Muris Varajic: Sep 20 2008, 12:19 AM -------------------- Youtube

Great post Daniel, a very nice story, I like it a lot. Individuality and character is crucial for becoming a good musician. Also relationship to music and instrument is crucial, and people feel that.
