Ep60 – A Brutal Truth About Learning Guitar (And the Two Types of Guitarists)

During my many years of teaching, I’ve taught two specific types of guitarists.

 

One type is the student who is full of positivity, resilience, and open-minded thinking. The other is the type who is struggling and looking for a way out.

 

It’s a hard truth and some people don’t like to hear it, but that’s what I’ve found. So, today, I want to explain why this is the case, why it’s probably not your fault if you’re the latter type, and why “natural talent” very rarely has anything to do with it.

 

Most of all though, I want to share with you a few tips to help you become the type of guitarist who finds solutions, enjoys the journey, and loves playing the guitar so much… you literally never want to stop. These tips are especially useful if you’re an adult learning guitar. I hope you enjoy this episode and thanks for listening!
