@SCGobbler , @petelanger ; I wanted to hit something again that Pete nailed beautifully, “You want to consistently show up every day and play, Don’t worry about completion/perfection!” This is key and huge! ……my two cents…engagement is the M.O., don’t sacrifice engagement for the sake of completion or perfection. What ever it takes to keep you coming back with that fire for learning, do that. If you can stop at a high point (this bears repeating) do the same lesson maybe for three days. In the end though this practice will become limiting thus the variations of the Daily challenges. Balanced building as it were. There is a physical reality most people overlook when starting up with guitar: your fingers are incapable, at the get go, of doing that which your brain is sure you should be able to do. You could do the same lesson 1000 times but you would not be able to do it until your body catches up with your mind. It is why enagament in the begining is darn near equialent in importance as the content until you have developed the neural pathways and kinestethic awareness in your back, chest, shoulders, elbows, wrists and fingers. I like moving along…I have experienced and seen the benefit over time as well as with others who did it moving on. When I let go and started doing it the way Tony was hammering home I was not sure. Now I know. I got better faster. And now I know why! : )
