    Hello,

    I’m just trying to figure out the course schedule. Let me explain. I am in my first week of the daily challenge, and as Tony has said, “if you can do 2 sessions a week, that is great”. Now, if I do 2 days of Hotel California this week, I won’t be able to play the song, as I only got part of the info. This will repeat with the next weeks song, but again, I won’t be able to play the song. The courses are great, but I don’t want to fall prey to myself deciding what to play, since that hasn’t worked for years!! I guess I just want to be assured that I’m on the right path, because my path doesn’t work!! Obviously the course works, or you wouldn’t have 42,000 students!

    In the quick start guide Tony says this:

    WEEKLY LEAD DOMINO SONG Every week you’ll study a familiar “Lead Domino” song by breaking it into it’s 5 core guitar skills. Not only will you be able to play the song by the end of the week, you’ll be able to learn similar songs much faster!

    As I mentioned above, with 2 sessions, I won’t be able to play the song. Do I just favorite the 5 days and go back and learn in my spare time, or do the weeks courses somehow repeat?

    Thanks so much,

    Greg

    This is one of the more difficult weeks but it’s a benchmark which means it comes back around in 4 months. Knowing what I know about this challenge (this is my 4th time through) I would do either:

    days 2 and 4 this will give you almost the entire weeks content because day 2 is a continuation of what was done on day 1 and day 5 almost always just puts a twist on day 4 in any given week.

    or:

    If you just did days 4 and 5, that’s a cohesive unit and you might get the most out of it that way.

    I’m just curious, how much time are you devoting to a challenge? Is there any way you could do an extra session or 2 at least occasionally?
