HOW TO BECOME BETTER AT GUITAR

1. Decide your focus

What style of music do you love the most?
Pick one first.
This can be your main style.
It doesn't have to be the only one, but it's your primary one.

2. Decide what sounds you like

Pick 10 guitar players you like
Pick your top 10 favorite songs in that style
Pick 10 albums that represent that style to you
This is how you build your taste, style, aesthetic.

You don't have to like everything, just know what you like!

3. Dedicate time to practice

Practice every day.
Even if it's only 10 minutes a day.
That will make a difference in the long run.

4. Practice one thing (and get better at one thing)

Pick any song you want to learn. Pick one part. Then, work on learning that.

5. Record your practice sessions

This is non-negotiable. This is how you find out:
+ what you can play
+ what you can't play
+ what is good
+ what can be improved
+ what to practice next

6. Invest in yourself

This means investing in your education.

+ Buy books & courses.
+ Attend workshops & talks.
+ Take regular private lessons.

There are SO MANY THINGS to learn.

Although you can find free stuff online,

it's rarely the same as high quality paid material.

Remember, you're not buying a "book" or a "course",

you're investing in YOURSELF

and that's important.

You are worth it!

And that's that for now.

By the way....
