self destruction on the way to blaming others

Revisado: 09-05-16

This is a great book about a sexually exploited youth who uses her sexuality to advance her career and then complains there is too much sexual influence in classical music.
Let me share the Blair is a great musician and a great writer. On both counts she deserves every award and achievement. If you like music and personal stories this book will reach you. If self destructive behavior bothers you move on. She constantly complains that her reeds are not well formed or that she is being shorted opportunity. Both are directly due to her focus on building her skills and choosing to live a love free lifestyle.
On a positive side she does admit her lack of focus practice limited her performance and did lose her opportunity.
I hope Blair can see that she was gifted more than most and was blessed to have found a path to her own fulfilment. Almost all limitations along the way where due to poor choices. You the reader can decide if this was due to not being taught life skills, a rigged system or a stubborn pursuit of pleasure.
I learned that we, individually, are our own worst enemy. For me this book demonstrates that clearly.
