My Presentation for the 2019 International Music Education Summit

Last year I had the privilege of presenting at the International Music Education Summit. My presentation was titled “Instilling a Growth Mindset in Your Students for the Practice Room, Rehearsal Room and Beyond”. It focused on the far reaching impact of having a growth mindset as a musician, student, teacher and human.

A big thank you to Elisa Janson Jones for having me as a part of this incredible event.

I hope you enjoy it!

Great Video on Changing Your Habits

This is a fantastic interview with James Clear, author of the book Atomic Habits.

I am an audiobook person. I bought Atomic Habits on Audible and I was less than 30 minutes into it before I hopped on Amazon and bought the hardcover version. This is a reference book that is filled with data while being incredibly easy to read.

To say something is life-changing is cliche. But this book has changed me as a father, a performer, a teacher, basically in every way.

I really enjoyed this short interview with James and I bet you will too.

And for those interested, I spoke about Atomic Habits in the very short TEM167.
