@JILLC please don’t worry about the F-ing mini F! Just leave out the low E string entirely for now. It sounds very similar, especially if you manage to not strum that string or position your index finger just lightly over the E-string so it’s muted).
Every player struggles with that chord and with several of the barre chord shapes along with a few other open shapes as well. You must try to find some enjoyment in the journey! We don’t have a Scotty to beam us into the universe where we’re excellent players.
Don’t forget that you ARE LEARNING when you struggle! And conversely, if you’re not struggling, you’re probably not learning very much (quite possibly nothing at all)!
The most important thing is that you come to play your minimum 10 minutes every day. Do your best on the challenge, mark it complete! You should only “practice” beyond that if it’s enjoyable, so probably don’t go to the mini F all of time or at least not for an entire practice session. Do something enjoyable that you learned in a Challenge recently or whatever pleases you!
