    I’m a beginner player and just finished the 30 days thing and I’m on the third day of the 5 day guitar challenge. So having said that, take what I say with a grain of salt. If you force yourself to use a pick every time you play, you will get “accustomed” to it and before you know it you won’t even think about it. I started guitar many decades ago-never learned the basics and had more formal teaching. I always had long finger nails on my right hand. I hated the pick because my nails were much more “intuitive”. This time around I have decided to actually learn how to play the guitar and so I started my new learning with a pick. I’m telling you if you make it a habit to use a pick, any pick, before you know it you will be doing it and not even realizing that it used to be difficult. Just don’t default to whats comfortable. You can do it!
