    I am also new here, not so new to guitar but came for a proper plan.

    Sounds like your start is great, getting the small wins seems to be the philosophy, I’ve grabbed a couple and its driving me forward.

    I hope you get that same feeling and are looking forward to more than just week 2.

    Lets have more of the same 🙂

    Hi, I am new here but from what I hear that’s the win.

    Getting the guitar in your hands for that ten minutes means you have a win. You may get more wins in the ten mins by learning a tiny thing. I have one session and some of the 30 day starter and I am feeling the need for the next ten mins already.

    Sounds to me like you have the right path and plan, another ten sometime today, for another win.

    I will keep all of that in mind @petelanger . So easy to get bogged down with keeping everything just so. I now have two sources for lessons, got rid of everything else, got rid of books, don’t subscribe to anything in YouTube as that’s a rabbit hole of doom. I am sticking to a 10-15 minutes session from my 2 sources every day. I will then practice those items after the session but the next day is for the next session.

    Cheers guys, great to have a focus. I’m just going through the 30 days and week 1 is easy enough but I just plan to follow pick up any things I may have missed trying to learn myself and build a fun habit of a proper practice session everyday.

    Brilliant, I find some things so difficult but that’s part of the fun and if I ever get frustrated I play something easy and that’s loads of fun, it’s great.

    Thanks for that. I was thinking about that but figured I would just stick with each day and make the most and get in the routine of doing it daily rather than jumping back and forth.

    Fun so far.
