Pete–
I agree 100% about what you say here. Believe me– I wasn’t trying to sound like an a-hole here. The goal in my previous post was maybe intended to be an old coach’s “tough love” kinda thing. Learning guitar is tough– and the sooner we accept that fact— the less-often people will give up when the progress is slower and harder than (maybe) they were “told”– (that the “only 10 minutes per day” is somehow gonna make you better). The slower you see improvement- the more chance you have of quitting– and I don’t wanna see anybody quit.
That is, was, and has always been my goal—- in years of coaching, in career-stuff, in guitar/ whatever…… you get out what you put in.
A person who chooses to walk fast will certainly get farther/faster than someone who’s chosen some slow stroll….. and both types deserve the result…… Not rocket science, right?
Repeat— “you get out what you put in”.
Repeat— “I don’t wanna see anybody quit”.
