Thanks for the encouragement and advice about the Dailies. Here’s what I originally wrote:
“By January 2021, I was “all in” with the Challenges. But they took a lot of time and supplanted FBW and the others, now called “skills” courses. In February, I settled into a routine of warm up exercises, Daily Challenges, and practicing a small number of songs. Long gone were any thoughts about finishing FBW and other skills courses… Although the Challenges hopefully were helping me improve, they seemed random and one-off and not like a coherent learning strategy that was moving the ball.”
But I now might try to find time (at least 10 minutes) on the Dailies. Your observation really resonated with me. That Tony’s lessons were connected in a very subtle and counter-intuitive way. That “His lessons help us with the full range of guitar skills every single week and over time we learn about guitar and music the way a child learns. Not by organized study, but by exposure to new ideas while having fun.”
Now it come down to finding the time to warm up, do the Daily, do FBW, and hopefully play a few songs. I guess that’s part of the fun! 😎
