You hang in there. Think back to when you began piano and how difficult it felt, but you kept at it and probably became fairly proficient. I played piano when I was young. I took lessons, but I didn’t practice much, and I eventually gave up on it.
Guitar is not an easy instrument, but it’s not impossible. It takes time. I almost quit at the end of my 2nd/beginning of my 3rd year of playing. I was frustrated and felt I would never be good. Suddenly, I had a period where everything fell into place, I could play several songs, and the momentum was so fun. I haven’t wanted to put my guitar down since. I’m able to pick up songs fairly quickly.
I’ll never be a great player, but I can continue to learn and improve. It does take effort. Initially, the effort seems a gargantuan task, but it gets easier as you move through your journey.
My words of wisdom are, don’t give up before the magic happens. Happy plunking!!
