To continue, should I be “mastering” each lesson before moving on to the next?

If I can piggyback on this thread, I too am having difficulty with my chord transitions. I’m on the 30 day course, but wonder if I’m doing some things wrong. For example, I’m working on strumming technique where I’m transitioning between G,C, and D chords. I start out slow and am supposed to speed things up but I find the chord transitions are way too slow.
It just seems that each lesson requires so much more time and I’m spending days on each lesson and progressing too slowly,

Hi Reggie.
I’m a newbie too. Just started last week. I had the same question. It’s kind of overwhelming, I know. You get flooded with info, some of it sinks in, some just whizzes by.
Go to your profile and you’ll see a drop down menu and click on Quick Start. I’m pretty sure I heard Tony say this is the place to start. I’ve been going step by step for about 5 days with the 30 Days To Play. I’m putting in about an hour a day. (I had already taken some lessons at a local shop and my fingers were good and calloused). Making progress, slow but sure.
Good Luck.

Rick

Thanks Sky. Appreciate the input. It does seem counter intuitive. But I’m having fun. Been playing some Jerry Jeff and Hank songs. They’re pretty slow but getting there. It’s amazing how many 3 chord songs there are. I’ll get there one day.
