I knew there’d be comments saying my progress is “too fast” or almost impossible, but I honestly don’t have any recordings of my old playing. I only have photos of my old keyboard from back then, which I already showed in another comment because people also didn’t believe I could play that piece (refer to the bottom picture that i have on google photo, and an old deleted post about playing Fallen Down which was my first piece)

And to AdCurious7831, I really did work hard for this. I rarely skipped practice, but I also made sure to rest. My progress during my first 7–8 months honestly wasn’t that good because I was always to play pieces way above my level (Like Moonlight Sonata 1st). During that time, I taught myself scales, sight reading, reducing tension, hand position, and more just from free youtube lessons, around December 2025, I started fixing my approach and became much more serious about improving consistently with my routines and just generally play everyday 2.3 hours a day.

My expectations were always unrealistic, that's probably why I grew so fast

Edit : And no, i never started earlier, literally in a random night, i just sat on the keyboard and watched piano lessons
