Ep36 – When the Gatekeeper Is Winning… (But How to Make Sure He NEVER Ends Your Guitar-Playing Dreams

This week’s episode is all about not letting negative thoughts win. Today, we are looking at how to overcome defeatist thinking and not give up on your guitar-playing dreams.

 

I’ve spoken about the Gatekeeper before in these podcasts, and today we are looking at what to do when he is winning. Over the years, I’ve heard people say things like “I wasn’t meant to play the guitar.” I always say anyone can play the guitar as long as they are physically able to play and mentally able to process the information.

 

However, the randomness of everything available to learn guitar can make it challenging, and it can be difficult to stay positive on the journey. So, I talk about how to avoid getting lost in this process, I also talk about a funny story of me getting into trouble at school for printing off dozens of pages of TAB. The guitar should be a source of joy and fun, and in this episode, I give you some tips and ideas on how to make sure you’re enjoying the journey.

 

This episode will help you learn how to stay persistent with your guitar dream, how not to give up, and keep improving on your guitar-playing journey.
