By the first story, about Valerie, told in this chapter, we learn that practicing by running through pieces can be very detrimental to our success with the piece in the future, no matter how we have practiced it before, if we do not pay attention to error correction that we need to do. We can also learn that we can choose to feel stuck in our problems of we can find ways of rekindling our desire to better ourselves and put emotion and feeling into what we are doing. We sometimes get to attached to our mistakes, thinking that they are in someway just a part of who we are and give us something unique that not everyone may struggle with. In those ways as well as others we cling to our self-proclaimed problems.

I found that I have done this quite a lot and in doing so I have missed seeing the progress that I have made and missed the point of learning. I get so focused on what I'm doing wrong and what needs to be fixed and worrying about what wrong things I may be completely missing that I don't build upon what I already know and do well.
