Making Connections
Personally when being confronted with errors I always liked to skip over them to see how far I could get through a song. I would get so frustrated in knowing that my mistake was coming up that I would despise confronting the real issues. after reading this chapter I need to simply slow down, pay attention, simply be careful. I need to take that microsecond of struggle and embrace it.
