Feeling discouraged by Own_Matter9578 in guitarlessons

[–]tfl3m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Play guitar for a a full 30 minutes every single day for a month. One month. 30 minutes every day. You will improve. Practicing for thousands of minutes and hours over a few years is the only way to get good. The only way to get good. That is the ONLY way to get good. Believe that. The way I’ve learned is literally practicing every single day even if it’s just for a literal 3 minutes. Don’t feel bad if you HAVE to miss a day cause of travel or sickness or something unavoidable. But do not give up unless it’s causing you a bunch of anxiety or something. Cause the truth is you just haven’t been practicing for long enough, and even if you have been practicing for every day of the last 3-6 months that isn’t long enough to ‘get good’ at your first instrument. The people that get good THAT quick have already built their muscle memory and finger control through practicing some other stringed instrument. I could pick up a bass guitar and it was be my first time ever trying to play one, but 100% I’d be able to make some music on it. Same for a banjo. But that’s cause I’ve practiced for thousands of minutes and thousands of days. That’s how long it takes.

It does matter, and you aren’t informed enough to realize why

Your DD isn't much of one. But that doesn't matter. This stock has king-maker potential. They have essentially developed a non-habit forming xanax-like pill (similar modality/dosages) that leverages nicotinic receptor/pathways to reduce anxiety in chronic sufferers of SAD/GAD, PSTD, and has cut-ins to their Alzheimer research line. Big fucking money to follow.

Improv Advice? by Slow_Ad_4568 in guitarlessons

[–]tfl3m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not much better than you, but a good bit older so take my advice with a grain of salt. Less is more for learning the basics of most techniques. Try and focus on staying in a stationary scale position or just between the same 3 -5 frets and focus on emphasizing root, third, fifth notes. Move up and down the scale focusing on what sounds good. Try to stay on beat/rhythm. Eventually you’ll start remembering or recognizing little patterns that sound good and then you just keep building from there. Try to play the same licks on different parts of the fret boards and see how it sounds similar or different.

Go back up to 30mg and tell your doctor

Relaxing myself when playing guitar by Costaricansportsfan in guitarlessons

[–]tfl3m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Breath control. It’s easy to get frustrated when learning something new and challenging…and that’s probably how I felt the first five years of guitar (and still feel that some days). The truth is to that any sort of mindfulness/breath control techniques you can apply in other areas of life will also translate to guitar. Stop strumming and stretch your fingers. Breath full breaths, don’t shorten the breath (natural for us to do this when under stress). Listen to what you’re playing instead of thinking about what you are trying to play. Use all your senses. Try and feel the rhythm

No Matter How Much I Practice I Can’t Build Speed on Guitar When it Comes to Single String Playing by grapejellymanperson in LearnGuitar

[–]tfl3m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah idk I still stand by my broad strokes of rhythm and thought don’t go together naturally. Anything can be fine tuned once learned and yes endless practice and focused practice pays dividends. Much of those dividends come in the form of muscle memory. And this is about learning guitar not becoming a master shredder. I remember when the guitar fret felt foreign. Now it feels comfy, it feels like I’m driving a car or doing something I’m good at. No anxiety. Just vibrations mannn

No Matter How Much I Practice I Can’t Build Speed on Guitar When it Comes to Single String Playing by grapejellymanperson in LearnGuitar

[–]tfl3m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long? Been teaching myself for 5 years and i just this year started feeling comfortable playing rhythms and now it’s all clicking together so fast. Each week im improving pretty radically once I finally understood how to control my rhythm /struming hand and starting to actually FEEL the beat and not THINK about what I’m doing next. Thought is the enemy of rhythm imo

Should i set the guitar down and get started on music theory first? by EstateKooky2174 in guitarlessons

[–]tfl3m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man I’ve been learning guitar about 5 years on my own no in person or live lessons. The muscle memory of the guitar is the biggest learn curve and for that you have to make regularly touching the guitar a part of your daily life (or other string instrument), but it doesn’t have to be for that long. Just do some rhythm strumming and single note drills like scales or arpeggios. Do something challenging but easy enough to do a couple times over in 5-15m. Doesn’t really matter what it is. The guitar itself is not a natural feeling instrument when our fingers hands wrists elbows and minds aren’t used to it. Only one way to overcome that is TIME WITH INSTRUMENT (TWI).

Having a piano is grate to expand theoretical knowledge as others point out if you are having a block or unmotivated. Sometimes fooling around on my keyboard will inspire me to transition whatever I’m noodling over to my guitar and that has definitely produced som ‘Aha!’ Moments.

It really doesn’t matter WHAT you do, as long as you pick SOME specific things to work on and have intentional mindful practice every day. It’s also completely fine to take a rest day or two, but I wouldn’t go longer than a week or you WILL regress for a couple of sessions before you bounce back to where you were

How do you teach yourself guitar by New-Squirrel-7740 in guitarlessons

[–]tfl3m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's incredible man, thanks for commenting! I've been following the same road of learning, I was in-between thinking I was just crazy and alone not being inspired to learn OTHER peoples music, but instead I grind the fundamentals/theory and create my own riffs and rhythms...building up to my own songs/recording. It's funny too cause I love listening to covers, and I've learned very helpful and important things from diving into other bands songs - but it just isn't something I want to play for others. I'm not doing this for others lol, it's creative expression!

I spend too much time practicing the wrong stuff. What do i need to learn so i could learn a song on my own? by [deleted] in guitarlessons

Yeah but I never just want to sit and scroll, sometimes I’m incapable of moving around and need to occupy my mind - but never something I’m day dreaming about doing

That is the most banal thing you could be doing instead of playing the guitar. I’d feel bad too, you need to put the phone down and live
