Dr . Buyer identifies eight values for achieving excellence in both work and personal life .
LISTEN TO YOURSELF The sounds we intend to produce are not always what we actually play or what the listener hears . Intention does not always become reality . Hit the record button and lay down a track of yourself playing a musical passage or exercise . Listen , critique , improve , record again , listen , critique , improve . Keep repeating until happy or exhausted . Listening to recordings of your playing is a healthy reality check .
GET INTO THE WORD Are you studying the Bible regularly ? As a worship musician , invest time in reading the Bible .
Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching , for reproof , for correction , and for instruction in righteousness , that the man of God may be complete , thoroughly equipped for every good work . 2 Timothy 3:16 WEB
Hey , we ’ re just getting started . Get movin ’ with this practical stuff and look forward to Part Two in the next issue .
