Focus on the journey, not the destination.
Joy is found not in finishing an activity, but in doing it.
-Greg Anderson
It is better to travel well than to arrive.
-Buddha
To a music educator at this time of year, these quotes take on a new meaning in the context of CONCERT SEASON!! Many music teachers are either expected to, or contractually obligated to produce both a holiday concert and spring concert. For many the past months have been the "journey" portion of the music process; the practicing done alone, in small groups, and in large group situations. The "destination" portion of the music process begins now in the holiday season, with the holiday concert.
