Hey @the-old-coach ;
First of all, you are totally welcome. It is a real pleasure to be able to give back to others in some small way. I have been given so much.
One of my biggest contributors is @jumpinjeff . Sometimes I have to really think about what he just said before I get it. I read your comment and his comment twice before the significance of what he said hit me.
He said to abandon the idea of “elapsed time”. So, you said it was going to be a “s-l-o-w” process. Ok, that’s not what our guitar journey is about. It is about exploration, and while we are exploring, we are having fun. While you are truly engaged, you don’t think of time. That only distracts us.
Thanks, for the gagillionth time, jumpin jeff. Like Mark, I tend to think instead of enjoy. I will work hard to engage my “pleasure centers” whenever I have my guitar in hand. (I just heard some old guy say that in a video last night. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BpUOCfAVB0 One of those “lessons” that isn’t much about guitar technique and more about inner feelings and intent.)
