Thank you both for the clarity.
Perhaps a lesson learned for me. Do not ask questions on the Internet when you have pneumonia and the free time. LOL

My deep apologies Pete as my humor has failed to come across regarding a new guitar. Think of it like my driving is bad, so I need a faster car to fix it. Maybe that will help. Tongue in cheek, including my wife and the harmonica. Not pertinent to the question, so should have left it out.
Yes, it can take that long to get my fingers on the right strings, and correctly. I am not talking fast beat here, think slow walk.. I just spent 30 minutes working to strum steady and not stop and let the fingers fall where they did and fix them all while not stopping. Just a simple down strum. Yes, G and especially D are a problem, but really most of them are except Em. Fingers in the wrong spot, wrong fingers, buzzy strings, dead strings, etc. If I do them one at a time I can do ok most of the time.
So the boiled down real question. Do I continue on, or do I circle back through the 30 Days until I can do the faster fancier strumming with chord changes at say 75%? I would guess basic strumming now I would be 20% at hitting the changes. I am not sure if I need to be better for the 5 Days and then Weekly?
Thank you.

Greetings Brian. Looks like we started the same day even! Not that I know exactly what the process is at this point. If I can hit 60% or so of what is in the lesson, typically after a couple of sessions on it, I mark complete and go to the next. I believe that is the intent.
Enjoy!
