Yeah, it’s not easy. I’m definitely struggling with it on many levels too and feel like there are some things I’ll never be able to play, the F chord. The weekly challenges seem too advanced for beginner lessons sometimes too. I’ve given up on perfection or even getting through some of the lessons. I do what I can with them and save them to my favorites so I can go back and work at them later. I’ve been saving the tabs and backing tracks from Wednesdays and practicing the scales vigorously. That’s the one thing I seem to be getting significantly better at. I like to strum chords transitions repeatedly and add new chords occasionally, I’m playing 9 chords now which is 9 more than I was. My transitions are still terrible but seem to be very slowly getting better with repetition. I’m finding the strings better and faster but the transitions are still sloppy but not as bad as they were. I expect it will take me several years to get not terrible and I’m going to have to be patient, persistent and committed. I’ve been blowing glass for 28 years and am still learning and improving all the time. Playing guitar isn’t any different, you’ll never finish learning and getting better as log as you don’t quit.
Don’t give up!
