Here's a question I hear all the time: "How do I play faster?"
It may take time to ramp up your speed, but you can do it. Go into this with the right mindset: work at your edge. Don't worry if you can't play something as fast as Mark O'Connor. At the same time, if you push the tempo a bit, you can improve your performance of the tune as well as your overall technical ability.
7 Ways To Play Faster
1. Gradually speed things up using a metronome
2. Start by speeding up single notes
3. Do less
4. Speed up the hard parts first
5. Track your progress
6. Slow down to play fast
7. Accept your limits
