Mr
7 Simple Steps To Drumming Success
The following will do more for your training progress than any
other super secret drumming technique or exercise:
Think on paper: Only about 3 percent of drummers have clear,
written goals. These people accomplish five and ten times as
much as people without written goals!
Step 1: Decide Exactly What You Want.
This will allow you to prioritize so that you are spending the
most time on high value tasks that move you closer to your
goals. If your goal is to play drums in a rock band, there isn't
much point in using up a lot of your practise time by practising
jazz fill-ins!
Step 2: Write It Down.
Again, think on paper. Written goals are a powerful thing. They
have an energy behind them that helps you move toward them that
unwritten goals just don't have. In fact, you'd do even better
by writing down your goals every day.
Yes, every day. It will only take a few moments and will help
you tremendously.
Step 3: Set A Deadline On Your Goal.
Create a sense of urgency and positive pressure. Without a
deadline, you will procrastinate and do the little things that
may damage your short term goals
If you wish to learn a particular technique or rudiment, set
time scales on this and keep your mind focused on the deadlines
which will encourage that 'sense of urgency' to complete.
Step 4: Make a List of Everything You Can Think of That You
Will Need To Do To Help You Achieve Your Goal.
Leave nothing to chance. The more planning you do ahead of time,
the more likely you will stick to the plan and achieve your
goals.
The more prepared you are, the more success you will experience.
Step 5: Organize The List Into A Plan.
Organize your list by priority and sequence.
Step 6: Take Action On Your Plan Immediately.
Do something. Get started. Start building positive reinforcement
and momentum RIGHT NOW.
Step 7: Resolve To Do Something Every Single Day That Moves
You Toward Your Major Goal.
And with drumming, you have to, don't you? Whether it is your
rudiments, listening to tapes, reading drum instruction manuals
etc., you should always be doing something that moves your
forward toward your goals.
If you continue to focus on and perform these 7 steps, you'll
be amazed at the results you'll see with your drumming skills,
speed and techniques.
