Technique is soooooooo important. When I started, all I wanted to do was learn pieces as fast as possible. I played really really hard repetoire, but I didn't have any technique. So obviously, bad technique = bad playing.
My biggest mistake was going too fast through things and not learning technique.
So, in conclusion, learn good technique. My favorite technique books are George Hamilton Green's "Instruction Course for Xylophone" (mainly 2 mallets but some 4 mallets) and for 4 mallets, LH Steven's "Methods of Movement." Finally, pace yourself. Don't rush through things. Just be patient and take things slow.
Have fun!
