Hello Mark,

I´m with TAC for 6 years. Since 2018. At first I tried to master each Challenge Monday to Friday. It was impossible, even with the weekends used to catch up. I was frustrated because it was so uncommon for me to be encouraged to let perfection go and move on that I just couldn´t do it. I was stressed by my hobby and stopped enjoing playing my guitar. A while later I didn´t check in every day (mo-fri) anymore because I had to catch up on already known and printed Challenges. And even later I allmost stopped playing at all because I was overwhelmed by the “work to do”.

But 27th October 2020 I did a reset. I promised myself: no more catching up! Instead doing the daily challenges on the day they where due for 10 minutes. Or longer – but only if I wanted. I didn´t allow myself a guilty concience – although it was very difficult at first.

That changed everything for me. Since that day I played allmost every day. And my guitar playing is getting better and better – even though till now I still can´t “master” most Challenges. But I´m doing allright and really enjoy the Challenges. And guess what? Now I choose a Challenge once in a while – when I like it or can use it in a song – and work on it until I can play it really good – considering my learning level. But those are the exceptions from the rule.

My advise is: do all the Daily Challenges on the supposed day for 10 minutes and mark them completed. After that it is every day up to you: do the Daily Challenge a little bit longer or anything else you want to play. BUT MOVE ON TO THE NEXT CHALLENGE THE NEXT DAY AND DON´T LOOK BACK – exept very, very few exceptions.

Greetings from Germany
