A metronome is a device that provides an audible click or sound that simulates a beat.
The metronome, in and of itself, is boring. It just produces a steady click… click… click … at some pre-assigned interval.
But metronomes are often indispensable to musicians. Many musicians practice with a metronome to hone their ability to keep a steady tempo. So do dancers. And athletes among others.
Important foundational investments are often like the metronome – they might seem boring to the uninitiated.
But they’re a key step to our ability to create something special.
