Without further ado! It's my pleasure to share to you all my journey as a Musician.
My Journey as a Musician
Being a musician is not easy, it requires rhythm and a beat that is surely accurate, losing the beat ruins the entire music, it must be like a water that flows freely without any barriers. I know that most writers here in read.cash platform are not just skilled when in comes at writing articles, but I'm pretty sure that most of our creative writers here are good at playing musical instruments or musically inclined. Great! now allow me to tell you a glimpse of my story how did I became an intermediate musician, I'm not bragging about my talent so please don't be mad at me, I promise ill inspire you to learn and make you fell in love with music, I hope you'll enjoy reading my journey as a music lover and an enthusiast.
The learning process
"Practice makes everything perfect"
I started playing musical instruments since I was 8 years old, I am inspired by my father who was a former musician of our church. He is the one who taught me to study and love music and at the same time to see the beauty in it. Learning the patterns, understanding the chords and following the beat of the music is the most difficult stage of developing the hearing skill. Despite of the hardships, I still pursue to practice regularly, no matter how painful my fingers are, even if the tone is not accurate to hear, even if the beat gets beaten up, it did not gave me a reason to surrender because I know everyone of us has the potential to learn and we are going to unlock it if we want to, just enjoy it, learn from your mistakes and persevere.
Its been a decade since I started to play and learn music, I never thought that I would come this far, the painful struggles that holds me to quit learning the music were already unleashed. Too fortunate, I did become a wedding pianist, everytime there'll be occasions that requires a musician Ill always be there to help and play. By God's grace, some music lover parents hired me as a musical instrument teacher for their children, it gives me an ultimate joy to grab such rare and huge opportunity. I'm so grateful that I have chosen music as a part of my life, I never regreted those times that I failed and tried again, remember, if you want to shine like a gold you must be burn and be mold.
Closing thought
If you feel like you wanted to be a musician, and maybe if you already stopped learning and left the instrument you loved, I challenge you to pick it up again, clean your instrument and blow away the dusts, make it shine as on the day you first bought it. Start your day with a joyful heart together with your instrument, bring a cup of coffee and learn through the process. A true musician's heart is like a music, it never grows old.
