What does it really mean to practise - and why do some people seem to improve so much faster than others?
In this engaging and eye-opening book, follow Charlie on a journey through the ups and downs of learning the piano. Wrong notes, small wins, frustration, breakthroughs - it's all part of the process. But beneath each lesson lies something deeper: a set of powerful, science-backed ideas about how the brain learns and grows.
Through Charlie's story, readers are introduced to the "11 Laws of Practice"; simple yet transformative principles that reveal what's actually happening in the mind when you try, fail, adjust, and try again. From the surprising value of almost forgetting, to why curiosity might be the most powerful learning tool of all, these insights turn practice from a chore into a skill in its own right.
Perfect for learners of all ages - whether picking up an instrument, improving at sport, or tackling something entirely new - this book shows that getting better isn't about talent. It's about learning how to practise with purpose.
Because once you understand how practice really works, you don't just improve at one thing...you get better at everything.
