One thing at a time !

It amazes me how many people start out playing the piano only to get frustrated and overwhelmed by all the details and then they quit . I can't pretend that I know the feeling. For me it was my unquenchable desire to play the piano that kept me going until I could see some real progress.And part of the reason that some people give up is because they don't understand how to approach learning to play the piano. Well let me give you my no nonsense approach to learning to play the piano. It's simple. Learn one thing at a time. Don't try to learn everything at one time. That will cause you to burn out. And so when you're sitting at the piano concentrate on learning 1 major thing why you're sitting at the piano. Own that new chord or scale for a minute. Work this new concept that you've learned for a little while before moving on. Then after you learn the new skills backwards and forwards then move on to something new. Never just keep playing until your fatigued , rest then come back to it . By the way heres a great website to buy how to play piano books and DVDs to help you on your quest to play the piano .
