Percussion Education Weekly Reads 7/5/15

I hope everyone had a fun and safe 4th of July weekend! I spent the weekend with my family, including watching the kids ride in the local July 4th parade, swimming, visiting family and watching fireworks. The summer is going fast! Enjoy every minute. Here are some articles to check out this week.

The Self-Observer Discrepancy: Why We Think We Sound Worse on Stage than We Really Do by Dr. Noa Kageyama

The Creative Cringe by Gregory Ciotti

Check out the #AskGaryVee Show podcast. If you are not familiar with Gary Vaynerchuk I would suggest checking out one of his keynotes on YouTube. He is social media guru who has built a reputation for being outspoken about business, the web and life in general and this short podcast will make you get up and get going on whatever you are doing. His book Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook: How to Tell Your Story in a Noisy Social World is also highly recommended if you are trying to build your online presence.
