This Is Way Better Than a New Year's Resolution!

- In this video, "This is Way Better Than a New Year's Resolution," I explain why setting goals is a far more effective approach to personal growth. I dive into the drawbacks of making traditional New Year's resolutions and discover the transformative power of setting specific and attainable goals. By bidding farewell to empty promises, we can embrace a path towards meaningful progress. I also break down my own goals for 2024. Trust me, this approach is way better than a New Year's resolution.

Happy New Year Mr Davis! Thank you for this very thoughtful and inspirational video. So, here are my goalss for 2024.
1. Eat healthier and get in shape. It's about time to do so. As for my body, so for my soul.
2. Educate myself more. Focusing a bit more on business skills. But never losing interest in other topics of general knowledge.
3. Playing drums more often. Idealy every day! Even for 30 minutes. 2023 was the year that drum playing/practice was in free fall. I just love the drums and I am at peace when I get to play. I need to take care of that.
4. Enjoy family time even more. Childern are growing. Parents are aging. Our family memories are the only heritage we can keep forever. And they should be pleasant, fulfilling and full of love.
Once again, have a happy new year! I am looking forward for your next video. Take care!
Thanks so much for sharing all of your goals in such detail. I know that this time next year you will be able to look back and know that you have accomplished and achieved a lot. That’s on your list. All the best to you in 2024!
Happy '24 Quincy! I appreciate you sharing that!
Mine are:
1. Show more gratitude to friends, fam, peers etc...
2. I've FINALLY accepted who i am..as a musician, educator and as a man. Im now open to being open! I want to explore that:
3. Get back to posting and
4. Practicing (drums and bass)
5. Be more involved in the drum community, locally here in TO, and online.
I wish you all the success bro. You're a really great communicator and educator; you ALWAYS inspire. Thank you for sharing man!
Thanks for sharing your very practical and REAL goals. I look forward to hearing how those goals are progressing down the road. Happy 2024!
Dude, killer opening. I like your goals method. First goal: Make a goals list soon!
Ha! That’s a great goal:)
The best thing about your posts is the wisdom and advice that they offer. That, in itself, is inspirational…the rest is gravy!😎
Have a wonderful 2024, Quincy…
I appreciate that Mikey🙏🏾. Here’s to a wisdom-filled 2024 full of growth Mikey!
Happy New Year / Feliz Año /Molts d'Anys from old Spanish Ned out in the wilds of Mallorca. I appreciate this and other recent videos about inspiration and a good state of mind which are as important as technique. Thank you the many videos and inspiration. My goals are better health and exercise, Spanish driving school, getting my house fixed up, practicing smarter and improving my musicianship. Peace health and happiness to you Quincy !
Thanks for sharing your 2024 goals Nutty Ned! All the best to you my friend. Say hi to Nadal for me🎾:)
Very wise words, Q! I have already started phone calls with people I am sadly delinquent speaking with. Average call length has been 2.5 hours😮 I am determined to get both my Jazz and Rock uptempo playing clean, consistent and feeling good. Also want to learn to play favorite rhythms much cleaner. (Also just started reading the autobiography, Sideman. In pursuit of the next gig by the amazing multi instrumentalist Mark Rivera).
Great 2024 goals. Love that you’re reaching out to folks. Feels good, right!? Thanks for sharing TC and Happy New Year!
Thank you for your commitment to your teaching and videos, they have gotten me through some very tough times personally- thank you!
You are so welcome Dave!
I had a very very difficult Christmas & New Year due to things out of my control.
I’ve failed spectacularly 😂 in my life & unequivocally you are right in what you say about resolutions .
Mine are similar to yours- except teaching . You are a great & kind man Sir .
2024 will be your year brother Jeff👊🏾
Happy New Year!!!! Just purchased the Volume 1 & 2 PDFs. Great stuff!!!
Right on! Happy New Year!
God's richest Blessings to you and your family, and all the best for this amazing channel in the New Year and beyond, Q!
Very kind of you. All the best to you in this new year!
Quincy Davis, Ladies and gentlemen., Even giving the haters some love in 2024. Thanks for all you do Q! I have huge respect for amazing players that are also excellent educators. Good luck with those compositions and Happy New Year!

Hello Quincy, and happy new year!
Thank you for all that you do, in every video you do I can see your gratitude, thank you for that!
As of jazz insights, advices and guidance, you have been like a mentor since I started following you on youtube, and I can tell you that I try to watch every video you upload!
I also have almost all the content from your online store! Even If I don't utilise it all, I can tell you that I played along the 30' blues workout probably 150 times last year if not more!
Anyways, THANKS to you!
I will share with you my goals:
1.- Stay fit (Stretching and sport).
2.- Working on my personal music projects (EDM and Jazz).
3.- Improve my musicianship (Drumming and composition).
4.- Improve my mixing and mastering skills.
Awesome goals my man Joel! Thanks for sharing. I’m so glad to be your virtual mentor:)
@@drumqtips thanks to YOU! 🤗
Happy New Year Quincy and everyone! Always wise words about music and life. Greetings from France.
Happy new year my friend!
Happy New Year, Quincy! Glad to have met you at JEN last week.
My Goals for Drumming this are to improve musicianship and time keeping abilities.
Looking foward to your videos!
Great to meet you as well Scotty! Keep in touch and maybe I’ll see you again in the real world:)
Happy new year to you Quincy ! ! Wishing you the most always. Like you, everyday gratitude is one of my goals - alongside making reading part of my practice routine and close listening to song form. Away from the instrument my day job is narrating audiobooks and I want to start working in other genres of voice work. Thanks again for all you gave us in 2023, can't overstate how valuable and nourishing your content is not just for the hands and feet but also for the soul✌🏼
Love those goals! Btw, where can I hear your work? Any books you’d recommend? Sounds like a hard job that only a small percentage of people in the world can do. Kinda like drumming:) Happy 2024 Lucas!
Happy New Year Quincy good and intelligent rant "do the best you can with the time given us" incremental my dear Watson🧐
Right on PE👊🏾
Thanks for the Motivation!🙏💜👍
You are so welcome!
One of my goals is to improve the way I move at the drums, so I'm going to work through Joe Morello's Master Studies. This is something I actually started a while ago, but I would like to make it a main focus for the coming year. I plan to start slowly and work through the main exercises while remaining as relaxed as possible. I don't expect to get all the way through the book, as it is an open-ended tool, but I would like to gain a working understanding of the different stroke types to improve my ability to analyze how I move at the drum kit.
Move the way you want to play. Conversely, play the way you want to move. Keep me posted!
Jes und nochmals js ja 2024 wird gut Danke
You are welcome sir. Happy 2024!
Happy New Year and thanks for the continued wisdom! Love the idea of a shorter, focused list of goals instead of writing down everything and the kitchen sink. Cheers!
Right on Harry! Glad you enjoyed the video. Happy new year!
Happy new year🎉🎉🎉
And 🙏 thanks for sharing
My pleasure. Happy new year!
Happy New Year Quincy and thanks for all the valuable information in 2023. Goal for 2024 is to become a better drummer/musician...
My pleasure and happy new year my man!
Volume needs turned up for your videos. Other than that I love them.
Noted! Thanks for letting me know.
Happy New Year, Quincy! I want you to know that your videos have been instrumental (hah!) in getting me back into the drums in 2023 after many years of inactivity. I've now got my "studio" set up the way I like it and sitting down to play is easy and fun. My goals for this year are to improve my groove, and to add some Latin flavors to my playing. I've set up a left foot clave pedal for the first time so will be playing with that!
Thanks for sharing. Awesome goals and I’m glad that my lessons have been of some inspiration to you. Happy 2024!
great video Quincy! good luck with your new goals. Among my goals are working hard (but smart eheh) to get first call gigs as drummer and improve my overall playing enhancing the true me behind the instrument. Love to ya all
You’ll do it Bruno with hard and smart work on the drums AND away from the drums👊🏾
that AND it´s a game changer!@@drumqtips
Happy New Year Q! Blessings!
Happy New Year Spicey!
Happy new year to you sir!

The up tempo bass play alongs and melodic comping exercises would be great for you. Cheers!

Hello, in your opinion, What are some good songs to practice to for new jazz drum students?
Practice to the song “So What” and “Freddie Freeloader”.
Quincy, did you say you studied with Billy Hart? Was he teaching in DC?
Yes. I studied with him at western michigan university in the 90s. Changed everything for me!
To this community does anyone else find independence and flow much better if one sits down at the drums first thing after waking up? My mind is my enemy at times
I’ve never heard of that, but maybe you’re not alone dave. Let’s see if anyone else chimes in to you.
I as well notice the same thing. I usually drink a room temp glass of water then play in the morning, everything feels better.
Every day, every week, every moment is a New Year. Oops! Did you hear that? A New Year just happened. Just like that.
As drummers, we know that a new beat is not different than an old one, just an opportunity for a new interpretation. I don't make resolutions or really even observe the New Year as anything meaningful because I try not to let all those other New Years go to waste!
Well said states Tommy👍🏾
