Thanks for a tremendous rehearsal this morning. The vast majority of you are SO great about working hard and having a great spirit about what we're doing. Keep it up. I'm proud of you!! Remember, we're not just learning notes and rhythms in music. We're learning life.
Life Lesson - Following instructions and doing what you're told are not just things you do as a kid at home or in school. They're things you'll have to do all your lives. Every day I have instructions from those I work for that I have to follow. Your parents do too! I'm sorry to report to you that when you grow up and move out on your own you really won't get to call the shots. We're all accountable to many different folks. Tax time is coming up soon. We all have to file our income taxes. Why? Because that's the rule. We may or may not agree with it, but it's the rule and our opinion of it really doesn't matter. We have to follow the law of the land or pay the price. When you go to work you're going to have a boss that will require things of you. If you choose not to comply you will most likely lose your job. Bosses are RARELY, if ever, as lenient as parents and teachers. They generally won't tell you repeatedly how to do, or not do, something - especially if you're rebellious toward their authority. They'll just fire you. Work hard, do what's expected (or more), keep your shoulder to the wheel and you'll do well. Have an awesome week!! Keep pressing on!!
