9) Piano playing is FUN. Really. It's one ofrepparttar 135289 funnest things I do. Think about it, why would so many of us do it if it weren't a blast?

10) Deep down, everyone wishes they playedrepparttar 135290 piano. Have you ever read other people's New Year's Resolutions lists? If you haven't, then you're just not nosy like me. No, seriously, if you haven't, I'll tell you which wish consistently pops up: "Learn to playrepparttar 135291 piano."

11) Piano playing is SATISFYING. It's truly one ofrepparttar 135292 most satisfying things you can do. (Right after touching your nose with your tongue. Or so I hear.) There's no feeling like playing a difficult song and playing it flawlessly. Quite an ego-boost.
