Definitely the techniques taught on Fiddlehed. Also recording myself and listening to the playback is hard but well worth it. I’m also blessed with a great group of online friends through Fiddlehed who support and inspire me!

Realizing that it’s a choice is key. It’s ok to be disappointed but why linger with negative thoughts?

I guess if we weren’t optimistic we never would have picked up a fiddle!😄

When I feel bad about how something is going,for example, the recording I made sounds terrible, I think of something that did go well- I have that tune memorized and now I can work on making it sound better.

That’s super helpful tip Debbie.
Do you use that strategy with other aspects of life?
Have you always done this? If not, when and how did you start?

It’s helpful to have a strategy when you’re feeling unoptimistic.

Thanks! I figured this out by listening over and over to the tune that I originally had on an old cassette tape! In the original the dynamics really add to the tune.
