Guitar Mindset chp.1
Playing a fast solos on guitar is not an easy job. But it's worth, at least you can impress the girls or intimidate the other guitarists. Well, as i said before, it's not an easy job to do. You must learn this, that and so on. Even if you're a professional guitar player, you still have to practice regularly to keep your hands insane, or it will rot and depress you!
People think that practicing guitar can add variations to their composition. They can make unique, original and variative composition when they learned some techniques. But you must know, the one which mainly influence your developmet in mastering those advanced techniques is your own mindset and spiritual condition! Not your guitar ebook, guitar videos or else. Below is a little mindset theraphy to make you realize something important in practicing guitar.
Take some time and think this, "WHY DO I WANT TO PLAY GUITAR?", that is your first thing to do. Is it to impress my friends, girls? Is it because i like guitar? Challenging? Whatever the reason is, try to be honest, and turn it become your spirit to practice guitar, more and more. Remember, this is important, take your time well.
Discipline. What?! Discipline? I just want to rock out! Well maybe you're true about that, but there are many kinds of discipline. Discipline on making a schedule to practice guitar is important. It will NOT HAMPER YOUR CREATIVITY! read that again! Make a special schedule, let's say that you're practicing all days a week. Take 3 or 4 days to learn scales, theory, progressions and so on. At that time, practice your skills. Then take the rest days of the week to have fun with your guitar. Jamming with your friends is not a bad idea. This time just rock out! Use your creativity to make new songs, compositions, licks, riffs and etc. With this, you can develop your SKILLS AND CREATIVITY TERRIFICLY.
Do you ever see some stepping stones in a river? When they're close each other, you can jump on them and progress further to cross the river. But when they're far away, it's hard to jump or maybe impossible and you can't cross the river. A dead end for you. That's is your third mindset. Set A SIMPLE GOAL, and practice it UNTIL it becomes piece of cake! Making a simple one will make you focused and it will help you to develop. Example, this day is your first day playing guitar. You think that you must learn about the basic chords first, because that is important when you want to play songs. That's simple, but it makes you focused right? After that try to make it higher and higher. This way you will be focused and practice well.
Enough for this time, i'll write more later. Hopefully useful \m/
