I’m sure you do… because you’re human!
I do it, too.
So what’s the #1 Mistake? F.M. Alexander called it “End-Gaining”.
End-gaining is when you care more about the result of your action than the process, the “means-whereby” you achieve your goals.
It’s when you focus more on what you’re DOING more than on your WELL-BEING.
The Alexander Technique is THE BEST way I know to bring my awareness back to my whole-person BEING so that I can do my activities in the most efficient and effective way possible, without causing myself physical or emotional discomfort.
In this live video, I talk about end-gaining and the pitfalls of making music in this way. In short, you’re not going to play as well if you’re end-gaining, and you’re going to waste a LOT of valuable time when you’re paying more attention to WHAT you’re doing than HOW you’re doing it.
