Remember It’s all about the “Basics”
A key part of learning any skill well is finding and sufficiently mastering the fundamentals.
Marching, Dancing, Playing Notes, even spinning Flag or Weapon all need the fundamentals of basic timing. In fact Timing is Key to everything basic in learning music, rhythmic patterns while drumming or learning drill.
Mastering the fundamentals is hard. We have to endure countless hours of tedious, thankless work. Those of us who endure this process reap the rewards on the other side. Not only do we become more capable in whatever skill we’re developing, but we also become more capable performers.
Secondly, perfecting the fundamentals often leads one to develop discipline. Almost any venture in life requires immense focus and discipline to have a ghost of a chance to succeed. Learning to love fundamentals is also learning to love discipline.
