Many people don't realize the importance of music education in the schools today. A new study showed, however, music education is extremely important.
In college, music education is one of the largest programs. Teachers have to learn general education materials and techniques. They must learn to play every instrument; they must learn music history and music theory; they must learn instrument repair and teaching methods; they must learn conducting and so much more. At the same time, much of our culture and tradition is absorbed in music.
Music plays a very important role in our education.
Music helps with math and science. Students learn to count, and how to multiply and divide. Students also use science to help them discover what sounds good together and what doesn't. Students also need science to understand something called the “overtone series", which is about how music is produced by vibration（颤动）and why.
Students learn a lot about languages through music．Many songs are written in other languages, including ancient ones. Students must learn to translate these works to understand what they are singing about. A song is likely to be a famous short work set to music; so students are exposed to that very often while singing.
Students learn a huge amount of cooperation （协作）of body parts through music, so parts of the body can work better together. Students must use motor（肌肉运动的）skills in order to play an instrument. Singers and wind（管乐器）players must learn breath control and be in good shape to play.
Students learn about art. Some famous pieces were written about important pieces of art, and students learn about the artists and styles as they're playing the music.
Music education also brings higher thinking to our children. It allows them to think about complex patterns. Students have to be aware of what every other musician does at every time. In that way, it develops cooperation, as well. They tend to develop more ability for learning.
As one can see, music is very important to education.

【1】 When it comes to choosing your goal, make sure that it states exactly what it is that you want to achieve. If your goal seems too big, divide it into simpler, easier tasks.

Write down your goal. You can write it in a journal or write it on a sticky note. Writing keeps your memory fresh and helps you clear up the clutter (杂乱) in your brain. Try to keep a journal or a diary.

Break your goal down. By chopping your goal up into manageable sections, it allows you to mentally make your way through the goal until the end of a year. 【2】 Therefore, you’re far less likely to give up or dodge (逃避) your goal by taking shortcuts or refusing to do anything.

Put a brake (阻力) on distractions. Turn off all distractions like TV, the Internet, your phone and every other gadget you have at home.【3】

Make it happen.【4】 Thinking is a useful start but thinking doesn’t do the heavy work and thinking certainly won’t move mountains. Go out every morning knowing what you need to do and then do it!

Stay positive. Keep saying that you can do it. Stay motivated and be confident.
