I think most Newbies, myself included, will suffer perfectionist syndrome at the start of TAC because you just want to soak in as much as possible from every lesson. After some period of time you come to realize that no matter how much time you have and could devote to learning the skills of the day, you couldn’t do it.
Instead, focus on getting something out of each day’s lesson. If you can go through it quickly and play the whole bit, then fine, do that! But for most of us, most challenges won’t be of that nature. Try to get the first measure down to some degree, maybe the first 2. If you have time later in the day or in the week to come back, give it a shot but don’t harp on learning it because you probably just aren’t ready yet.
I have found that I can usually get Monday’s challenge at least on slow speed. But today I realized that I couldn’t. Today was like a 75 yard field goal for me, some Mondays it’s a 20 yard point after attempt. The skills have to have something for everyone, this one is too advanced for me and that’s okay. I just put in 15 minutes and marked complete! Then I practiced some other skills for another 5 minutes.
