[quote=Anonymous]I took the music seriously and I think it gave me good abilities to do things that are tedious and boring, a good ability to make a plan to tackle learning something. I had music teachers who would ask us to listen to a bunch of different artists playing the piece, identify the differences and then argue for which interpretation we liked , etc. I was comfortable in grad school applying the same logic - here are the different interpretations of the problem, the different approaches. I also had a lot more discipline than most of my colleagues for learning hard languages because it reminded me of practicing the piano - it’s boring and repetition is important, etc. [/quote]
