      Effort is a determined attempt that is uncertain to work; succeed; aka when something serves its purpose and isn't a deluded failure thinking that it work because it attempt to achieve, when in reality, attempt is not work. It is what is done to make things work. There is no guarantee that you will succeed. Learn.

      Hell yeah. As long as you've got two limbs or even some toes, you can make it work. At least it's not violin. There's no 'chopsticks' for violin.
      I mean, I guess there are fiddlesticks though. So even if you had to get someone else to do the drumming on the strings you could still make it work. You can stop making music when you're dead.

      Start super simply and work your way up the difficulty.. Left hand just do the note D (ii), F (V), and then C (I), just those 3 notes and nothing else. Right hand do FACE, go FABE, then EGBD all as block chords. I don't know how else to explain simply the transposition down to the next key, but you just turn EGBD into F#GA#D while doing C(ii), F#(V) and B(I).

Now at the age of 37, 20 years later, your video has made me want to slowly get back into it. Learning full pieces of work are too daunting and much too tall and order for someone who doesn't have the time, but perhaps daily piano warm ups like this can not only limber the fingers and give life back into this old piano of mine, but lift the soul and inspire myself to put more time into it.

      I actually feel the same way about 1:00 , it sounds like a girl riding her bike down the middle of the street, in a neighborhood, when the sun is setting and the sky is filled with purples, oranges and pinks. I have synesthesia so I visualize the way music sounds. Actually gives me inspiration for a painting, since I’m big into painting surrealistic expressionism and eye-catching pieces.
