It is about setting goals that are within our reach, relative to the circumstances, and going all-in to achieve them. With your recovery, you wouldn’t practice the same amount of hours as you did healthy when you are coming back from an injury, right? So adaptive excellence tells us - what is the best I can do in this environment? How can I reframe my concept of excellence to this situation? Adaptive excellence is about giving yourself the grace you deserve, to help you become the best you can be. Keep on keepin’ on!If you are a musician going through injury, a music educator trying to help one, or a musician just trying to make it in life, then you need to listen to EVERY episode of this up and coming show!
