Leadership by an example of persistence.
"Thanks for showing yourself genuinely sight reading and screwing up at times. Persistence in the face of frustration and failure is so, so, so important. Seeing a leader and teacher like you be vulnerable in front of thousands of students is a marvelous teaching tool. It's easier to takes chances, fall down, and get back up when we see our wise elders do it (though you look super young for a "wise elder" [I guess it's true what they say: black don't crack!].) It's also necessary. Thank you as always!" Comment to a youtube piano teacher. The teacher was showing a new way to practice site reading without being able to see the keyboard. Mistakes were made.
