Be Patient!

Learning to play the drums is extremely frustrating if you have never played drums before. That’s why most newbies begin to play and then soon quit. Their attitude becomes, “What’s the point? I’m never going to learn to play drums.”
It’s true that some people take to the drums faster than others, but that is definitely no reason to quit. A person must be patient with themselves in anything new they set out to accomplish. It just isn’t realistic to expect to play drums well overnight.
Remember, frustration is a natural occurrence in anything new you set out to do. But, it’s only temporary, if you can outlast it.
