After 5 years of useless piano resolutions I have decided to change my approach. I found a piano teacher who is happy to come to my house once a week in the morning to teach me. So unless I want to throw my money out the window I better practice.
Today was my first lesson. It was embarrassing how little I have to show after 4 years of lessons. Well. We are starting over and I really like my teacher. (I've known her for 2 years and found out by chance that she is a piano teacher.)
So it is back to basics on the piano for me. I think it will pay off. Why spend 6 months practicing one song, if I can spend 6 months practicing so songs like that will take 2 or 3 weeks to prepare?
Realizing I was a hoarder was both a shock and a relief. A shock, because nobody wants to have a mental disorder. A relief, because my situation finally had a name. I found people who could relate. Knowing the problem helps solving it. I can step aside and look at the situation from a more neutral point of view. Why am I blogging about it? 2 reasons. 1. Putting my thoughts into words helps me think more clearly. 2. If this helps just one, who is like me, see the light it was more than worth it!
