Growth Mindset: learning and skill development through effort
I've been following this guy's podcasts for a while now, often listening to one while puttering about on a Sunday morning.
I thought this one is very applicable to learning an instrument and playing music. OMMV Also available via Apple podcasts. Google Huberman Labs.

Downloaded that pod - thanks.
If you're into neuroscience and learning musical instruments, may I also recommend Dr. Josh Turknett and his Brainjo book/podcasts. |

Amongst other subjects. On music and neuroscience I also like neuroscientist Daniel J. Levitin, who wrote "This is Your Brain on Music."

I've got another for you, then - "Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain" by Oliver Sacks. But I'd guess you've likely already read it. |

I just got the "Brainjo" book. I expected it to be nonsense, but it's actually remarkably good. It's as though this author went thru my brain and extracted everything I've ever concluded about learning music. Thanks for the recommendation!
