So what does this all mean for
you?
Your group may have a system to
determine who’s ready to play a certain spot or get to the next ranking, but
it’s silly to think that there’s only a short window of time that you’re
being evaluated in. Everything you’ve
done up unto that point – good and bad – is taken into account. Have you taken to new spots well in the
past? Do you self-correct? Have you been trying hard overall, not just
for one particular spot? Do you help
others who are trying to learn the spot you got? Do you get uppity when you get new spots? All of that plus more come into play.
Sure, it’s easy to just say you
need to be the perfect role-model and exemplary student when you
practice, but none of us are
perfect. So instead realize that
everything you do in practice (and sometimes outside of practice) is part of
the audition for your next…everything!
