Came upon a quote by 17th century mathematician Blaise Pascal, “People are generally better persuaded by the reasons which they have themselves discovered than by those which have come into the mind of others.” I like that much because I think anything that actually sticks, we teach ourselves. My classmates looked at me screwy when I went on a tear trying to explain this last year. It isn’t a very popular view, nonetheless, it’s my stance teaching piano or songwriting, put the person in a situation to discover the solutions themselves.
