subject: Interested in doing music with the guitar? Here are three success tips that work! [print this page] It breaks my heart over and over again to see people quit on their music training for one reason or the other. Mostly, these people are the ones who will be overflowing with so much positive enthusiasm about their guitar training course. Within a short time, however, they might come down from their musical high, and become deflated, believing those blasphemous words that "maybe the guitar is not for me". Some might even go the extra mile by concluding that they are just not cut out for music. It breaks my heart because nothing could be farther from the truth than that statement. I want to say this: everyone and anyone can learn to play the guitar. It just takes the acknowledgement of three factors: the use of proper methodology, playing music that suits you, and the consistency of a battering ram. I write this simply to show you through the three processes and I pray you find a nugget that will help you get back on your feet and face that musical challenge head - on.
Information, they say, is power. How true this is in the guitar school! Most times what is wrong with your learning is not the instructor or yourself, but the method being used to impart the information to you. Over the years, there have been dramatic improvements in the quality of the lessons that are now used to teach guitar. Using multimedia, we now have the option of creating standard graphics, using the CGI interface for instance to produce picture of good quality as well as produce interest in you that will result in better comprehension, and ultimately, cumulative goal achievement.
Another thing to look into is the idea of music type, or genre, depending on what you want to call it. I know that as a beginner, you will have to play a little of everything, but I advice you to major mostly in what your heart is attracted to. This will make it more bearable and easy for you to grab concepts. As it is with studying a course you don't really fancy, learning a genre you are not accustomed to might only make you study slower than if you were working with familiar stuff. I am emphasizing this because of the grave importance it bears.
Lastly, never ever say never. It might be tough, might get rough sometimes. Sometimes you might be asking yourself 'why do I even bother doing this" and you might believe you are wasting your time, but I urge you: do not ever quit. Bear in mind that it's not over till you say it's over. As long as you're hanging in there, you have the chance of getting better and better. Believe you can do it, and the rest will come to favor you.
Just follow these basic rules subtly in your heart, and I bet you will find notable progress in your musical aim.
