This study followed the lives of college violinists and found some interesting trends. Among them, they found that the best of the best violinists:
1. got more sleep each night
2. practiced the same amount, but practiced smarter
3. spent more time doing leisure activities (correlation with more relaxation)
My take-away? To encourage optimum performance, work-life balance and taking care of yourself are more important than we might think.
