Learning to play an instrument is quite similar to learning a new sport, or for that matter learning to do anything which you want to do well. Talent is a gift which is sort of like a head-start or an advantage which some people have over others. But to do well consistently, one needs to practise.
A teacher helps you with the learning part in this journey. A guide who helps identify things which a student cannot see. A guide who helps with the right direction and approach. That is all. Dedicated practise is what makes a student better over time. And there is no shortcut or substitute for this. So if you want to make your teacher happy, then practise well and get ready for the next lesson. And don't measure your progress based on how many different things you have tried. Quality always triumphs over quantity.
Happy Diwali and regards,
