As long as we learn piano students maintain a high level of concentration during the piano practice, we will get everything we want.
Why does
say that concentration has such a powerful effect? This needs to be discussed from its two characteristics, and the following Wan and Luo will explain in detail.
1. Focus will make the exercise enter the "automatic" state
that is, " flow " state. In this state, the piano learners have the characteristics of high efficiency, high accuracy, and strong anti-interference ability.
Even if it is a difficult work, or tricky skills, difficulties, etc., in this "automatic" state, the piano learner will be "happy" to handle tasks and constantly try to make breakthroughs and solve them.
As for the results of the final exercise, it is not that important. Importantly, the practice process is already very "active" and very "automated".
As a passage in " Learning Way " says:
"You are focused on the process and will not move forward on a certain task, but will enter an automatic state and do not care whether you must complete the task."
Of course, practicing piano while maintaining a high level of concentration, generally speaking, the results of practice are good.
2. Focus can also better use the ability to "diverge" thinking to help solve problems in practice
Before, in my article "Practice the piano, use these two thinking modes", I talked about two ways of thinking about problems that I often use when practicing piano, namely the "focus" mode and the "diverge" mode.
You will definitely think that when the piano practice is high, the piano learners will definitely enter the "focus" mode.
This is indeed the case. But at the same time, we also overlooked one thing:
concentration can also "activate" its own "divergent" thinking pattern well.
Because concentration can enable the piano learner to enter the "automatic" state, in this state, the piano learner can gradually reduce the consumption of willpower.
Although practicing piano is a small thing that can be "focused", the smaller aspects of thinking, methods and other aspects required for practicing piano have various forms and contents. Therefore, in the "automatic" state, under the premise that little willpower is required, the piano learner will "automatically start" his own "divergent" thinking mode in this process, and constantly "match" the practice methods that can solve the problem.
and then cooperate with the experiment and application to transform your thinking into action to solve problems.
So our concentration and ability to focus on doing things are the ability that requires effort to improve.
