Hate to reply to myself… but as I thought more about this— I guess what I was trying to say is that there is a “bigger picture” here.
Years ago, there was a person having trouble staying motivated. He must have had some sports background; one time he said– “I’m tired of just doing “cone drills”— I want to get out there and PLAY”. He had good intentions– but I think he was just a little impatient. His desires were ahead of his abilities— trying to build something but didn’t yet have the tools. This never works……..
TAC-challenges are the tools. Every one of these little skills you pick up in the challenges- (months and months worth)— whether it’s mastering a certain transition, some cool picking or strumming pattern, maybe muting, some scale, learning about Keys or modes, maybe hammer-ons or pull-offs or slides or whatever……. (hundreds of little mini-skills).
These are just a bunch of little parts and pieces (tools) that don’t really mean that much when looked-at individually. But “the bigger picture”– over time– starts to show you how they all fit together.
Your brain may well just do this automatically for you— without you even noticing!
THEN, you take all these hundreds of individual little parts and pieces and put them to use— as your own skills allow.
Maybe I just made it more confusing…. I hope not….
