Just do it now

Why do you avoid it?
You always put off your practising.
You say you'll do it later.
After watching tv.
After chores.
Then it gets too late.
You say you'll double up tomorrow.
You say you'll do lots of work at the weekend instead.
And then tomorrow or at the weekend you say the same.
How about you stop making excuses and JUST DO IT NOW?

Little and often works best. Just do that. Hz

Laughs

"My Mum put my music out in the recycling box."
What a great excuse for not practising last week!
I was laughing so much I nearly fell off the wall.
Easy to tidy up music with the old newspapers.
But how come the only piece to be taken to the shredder was that tricky one?
Guess your teacher might want you to buy another copy.
But in the meantime - you have no distractions from making your other pieces sound great.
Go for the most beautiful sound you can make.
And keep your music books away from the rubbish bin.

Remember, YOUR worst excuse can feature here. Send it to me as a comment and the best (or worst) will feature in a new post. Hz

Right now!

Well, of course your teacher's not happy!
Think of their day.
Listening to all the students who did nothing all Summer.
AND all those terrible excuses!
Must be the worst week of the year for them.
Your new routine looks like fun.
When are you going to start?
What do you mean tomorrow!
What's wrong with today?
Or even right now?

Go on! Run it past me. Hz
