I Tried to Learn How to Play the Drums in 30 Days

This month I try to learn how to play the drums in just 30 days.🥁 Subscribe for more skill learning videos! ►Total amount of time spent this month’s challenge: 35 hours ►Connect on my NEW instagram: @kizebae   / kizebae   ❗ If you have good eyes, you'll notice I had to re-record the ending audio and overlay it. It IS me playing, but courtesy of thin studio walls = bad audio, I don't own any of those fancy mics, and I'm working on a shoestring budget here, please forgive me trying to save money! More info about the final take. Warning it's a bit of an essay: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1q... Hopefully my final performance mistakes can be forgiven. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Big thank you to all the coaching help I got over the month!

I enjoy the process of deconstructing a skill and figuring out what would be the best way to learn that particular skill very quickly. On this channel I document those challenges. You can see my final drum performance towards the end of this video, but my favorite part of the whole challenge were actually the days I was practicing the drums. Don’t get me wrong, hitting my intended goal on Day 30 felt exhilarating, but I also believe that there’s an inherent thrill and value in taking the time to pursue a hobby, and working towards incremental improvements on a daily basis. I hope this video sparks two thoughts: 1) Becoming good at a new skill isn’t as hard as most people think. When was the last time you spent a focused full hour per day (or even just 30 minutes) practicing something for 30 days? I believe most people would be surprised at what they accomplish. 2) We live in a world full of specialists and immediate gratification - if a task is not visibly applicable to one’s job or is tied to a direct monetary value, we often don’t pursue it. However, I'd like to make a case for the the love for learning and the pursuit of improvement itself. I hope this video inspires at least one person to take on their own learning challenge. What have you always wanted to learn?
