The Bible and Music

Today in class we also talked about how artists sometimes only see what they lack in their talent instead of what they bring to the table. I found this to be very relevant to my life in terms of football. I am my own toughest critic when looking at my abilities. Although my coach tells me that I’m making a lot of progress, I don’t see it a lot of the time. Instead, I just look at what I lack in comparison to some of the other best players in my position group. Hearing this gave me a lot of clarity because I have never thought of myself like this much before. This outlook is also one of the best ways to lack complacency with your abilities. Composers constantly want to get better at their trade, and that is an admirable trait.
