Was this forum's software written in the 19th century or what? I don't know, but heck, wherever it is, sounds like a very balmy place. Every day we are afforded a new chance. The problem with life is not that you run out of chances. In the end, what you run out of are days.

Touch is something you create by hitting millions of golf balls." - Lee Trevino "If we continually try to force a child to do what he is afraid to do, he will become more timid, and will use his brains and energy, not to explore the unknown, but to find ways to avoid the pressures we put on him."

Therefore, like any technical problem, there are two requirements: 1. Having a very knowledgeable teacher explain/demonstrate what to do and why(for such a general topic as touch there could be different approaches, although I think they will have things in common) 2. Practice Last edited by pianoloverus; 01/01/14 07:20 PM.
