#2 Improve Your Singing Through Mindset Alone

In this conversation, Grace discusses the critical role of mindset in improving singing skills. She emphasises the importance of embracing a beginner's mindset, finding joy in the learning process, and rewarding hard work over natural ability. Grace also highlights the significance of storytelling in music and encourages singers to shift their perspective from obligation to opportunity in their practice.   Takeaways Mindset is crucial for improving singing skills. Embrace being a beginner, regardless of age or experience. Focus on the joy of learning rather than pressure to perform. Consistency and small daily habits lead to significant improvement. Reward hard work instead of just natural talent. Artists should prioritise storytelling over showcasing their vocal abilities. Shift your mindset from 'have to practice' to 'get to practice.' Creating sound is a gift that should be enjoyed. Tap into the joy and playfulness of singing, just like a child.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:15 Learn to be Comfortable as a Beginner 04:47 Don't Let Your Ambition Immobilise You 07:57 Small Habits Make BIG changes 10:00 Rewarding Hard Work Over Natural Ability 13:28 Glorify the Song, Not Your Voice 17:39 The Joy of Singing: A Mindset Shift 19:05 Outro Like & Subscribe.mp3   Resources Book - Atomic Habits by James Clear Book - Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol S.
