If you never fail on saxophone…. you’re probably going to sound like crap.

Playing the same song every day without challenging yourself isn’t going to make you better. You also might be able to beat five-year-olds in basketball, but it doesn’t really mean you’re good.

If you casually lift light weights in they gym, you’re not going to get stronger either. Muscles grow if you push them to the edge.

You’ve probably seen that people progress in their careers following a failure. If you lose one job and get a much better one, it’s a step on the right track even if it didn’t feel good for the short term.

So don’t try to avoid failure!

Challenge yourself on saxophone!
