No you didn’t skip any lessons. The 90 day deal is for the entire TAC family (of which you are now a part… congrats). Quarterly, Tony emphasizes some longer term goals that you personally set. There is a link to a Guitar Journal that spells out that process. I think he calls it a WOGI (Wheel of Guitar Improvement). I personally write up my quarterly goals in my profile and then update it each quarter. You can look at it if you click me. In this week’s daily challenges, Tony will emphasize an aspect of the quarterly assessment process. A long time ago in a galaxy far far away, each quarter there was a quarterly giant zoom type meeting of all TAC members to do this process. It was more fun but I guess it got too big. Anyway, you are good and where you are supposed to be. Enjoy.

Steady wins the race said the tortoise. Good win and time well spent.

Well you certainly put the SWR sound and style on this classic. I trust it was a fun time putting it together. Our next full moon is a “Hunter’s Moon”.

Great voice, good chord work and my favorite part is the genuine and honest “whoops” that we all do but don’t post! Love it.

Good campfires rendition. Easy for those listeners who remember to be able to sing along. Thanks for posting.

Hope it works for you and yours. Good use of creativity.

Praying that your bones will move to make another surgery unnecessary… and that your spiritual and emotional being continues to be strong and that music and praise of any sort will continue to flow out of you.

Great experience. Thanks for taking the time to share it with us.

Welcome @lisajcurtis67gmail-com to TAC. Let me see if I can give you some peace of mind. But first, where are you in your guitar journey? Are you a “never ever picked up a guitar before”, or “have dabbled over the years and want to get consistent now”, or “I can play around campfires but want to get serious”? My counsel depends on your goals. @Loraine can tell you learning guitar isn’t easy but can be done with fun and enrich your life. So my initial advice is to just focus on the 30 DAYS TO PLAY, then the FIVE DAYS something or other, then jump in the Daily Challenges. If you are not a “never ever”, then you could accelerate that process. But my main caution is not fall into the trap of comparative thinking where fun goes to die. Wherever you are on your journey, enjoy it. Trust the process. The 10 minutes will work if it is consistent.
I would also formalize your overall goal in writing (if not in your profile then in your head). That is the “Start with the end in mind” thing. [Wow… I have a lot of “” and () today] Anyway that is a start.

I use Guitar Tabs and it has such a feature at the center bottom. I haven’t seen such a feature inside TAC.

Not of which I’m aware inside TAC. I would think they could be googled, but I usually scribble my own.

Good chord transitions and chord modifications… and song selection. I feel sad thinking about Alan Jackson’s physical deterioration that prohibits his performing very long on stage. We saw him here in Austin at the rodeo halftime once live. Good time.

Nice set up. And you even have your TAC notebook. Old school like me.
-
Tony has a whole stretching course that I use. I think it is under skill courses.

That’s interesting. I may give that a try. Computers are also my friend. I meet them back when I had to assemble punch cards to compile a program.
