In this episode I take you through my 5 essential pedals. These are the ones I use all the time and how I set them up. 1.

It’s no myth that consistency and success go hand in hand, it is the one thing that unites all high-level musicians, athletes, business people and high achievers. If you speak to any professional player or high-level musician, they will tell you that the ‘fixed mindset’ idea of ‘natural talent’ is somewhat of a fallacy and that the only path to success is hard work, repetition and practice!Creating a strict routine for your practice will enable you to see your improvements, manage your knowledge gaps, develop technical strength and give you the ability to reach your goals in a fast and effective way.
