Kinga,
So much great advice already and maybe this was already touched on. What struck me was your statement regarding learning to play the guitar…… “I have not managed to learn it”.
I would encourage you to change your mental model about your learning goal. I was at an open mic a few days ago and a person said “I cant really play the guitar but here is a song I wrote”. And then they played their song that had at least 4 or 5 standard chords along with some chord voicing I was not familiar with but it sounded great. Most popular music is the same 4 or 5 chords. I was just listening to Ray Wylie Hubbard and 2 of his most popular songs have 1 chord in the whole song (E). So what does it even mean to “learn the guitar”.
1) Maybe identify a few songs you want to play and focus just on those.
2) My own breakthrough was keeping a guitar on a stand in the living room where I picked it up 2 – 3 times a day and just strummed a chord. Muscle memory is an amazing thing.
Hang in there and keep strumming !
