Being able to play the piano is a skill that not very many people have, but one that a lot of people would like to learn. If your parents don\u2019t start you off taking lessons at a young age, typically it is rare for adults to push themselves to learn and take lessons. It\u2019s hard getting out of your comfort zone and try something that you have never done before! <\/span><\/p>\n

As we\u2019re getting into the new year, start 2018 off right and get motivated\u2014 try pursuing a new instrumental skill by learning how to play the piano! <\/span><\/p>\n

Challenge Yourself by Playing the Piano<\/span><\/h2>\n

New Year\u2019s is the perfect excuse to try to do something that you have never done, but something that you have always wanted to try. <\/span><\/p>\n

Usually, at the end of a year, people will come up with different lists of things that they want to accomplish within the new year, whether its health and fitness goals, travel goals, or pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and learning something completely new. Being able to play an instrument is a skill that most people would like to boast about, but is one that does not come easily. <\/span><\/p>\n

It takes a lot of time and practice in order to feel comfortable playing in front of others and to master the skills of playing the instrument and reading music. But the feeling you get once you can play the piano is worth the effort!<\/span><\/p>\n

Set A Goal: Learn How to Play the Piano<\/span><\/h2>\n

Many resolutions can be inspired by life-long goals.<\/span><\/p>\n

A lot of people have a bucket list or a list of things that you want to do before you die essentially. Usually, when people make these lists, they will only cross off a couple of the things that they are wanting to either see or accomplish. <\/span><\/p>\n

A newer idea of New Year\u2019s Resolutions or bucket lists is to make a “101 in 1,001”\u00a0list, and it is essentially 101 things that you want to do in 1,001 days which equates to a little over 2 and a half years. <\/span><\/p>\n

This list is more accelerated than a bucket list, but less pressure than a resolution for the New Year. It is the perfect opportunity to sit down and make your list of things you would like to experience, learn, see, eat, or whatever else you come up with for your list. <\/span><\/p>\n

Adding learning the piano or taking piano lessons is a great example of something to add to your list, no matter which format you choose to motivate you!<\/span><\/p>\n

You\u2019ll eventually get to playing your favorite tunes!<\/span><\/p>\n
