    As someone who is around 3 months into his own journey, and started here with TAC as well, I would agree with Bill, don’t worry about the daily routine stuff, do the “30 days to play” and focus on that, until you are able to make all of those chords cleanly and ideally work your way to being able to transition reasonably, and then follow that with the “5 day guitar routine challenge”, which will explain how the 5 day a week challenge works etc.

    You certainly could do the daily challenges while doing the 30 days to play, but honestly, I honestly found them more confusing than anything early on.. not that you can’t do a daily challenge, you certainly can, but when you can’t even make a chord consistently, what good is trying to do all the chords of a family?

    I personally stuck to spending my time whatever the lesson was for the day, and then on making the open chords and transitioning cleanly between them… My typical day during the 30 days to play was to spend so much time on the lessons, and then try to play a simple version of a song I wanted to learn once I had a few chords in my belt. I admit it took me more than 30 days to finish it all, but that’s okay.

    It was only after finishing the two courses I mentioned that I started really doing the daily challenges. Now I spend at least 10 minutes working on the challenge, and still spend about an hour to two a day practicing other things I want, like playing a songs, or transitioning into and out of new chords, (currently trying to get the F to C transition speedy enough to actually play songs with this transition with the full version of F) etc.

    Whatever you decide to do, good luck.
