Have you ever looked up the definition of “inspiration?” Here it is: stimulated to do the process of being mentally or feel something, especially to do something creative. And the source of inspiration may be a lot more basic than we think.
I have twin sons. One of my greatest memories of their milestones in life was when I saw one of them roll over in his crib. We all understand how basic that is…but coordinating your hands, feet, legs, and a “roly-poly” middle to make going from your back to your tummy is quite a process for a baby. We talk about learning to crawl before we can walk…but folks, we all had to learn to just roll over before we could begin to learn how to crawl. We need to be able to see our own small successes, no matter how humble, so that we continue to progress and inspire ourselves to move forward. Little victories make for great successes. Be inspired by your own success when learning banjo. Here are a few examples of what I mean.
