Than you for your videos! They've been incredibly helpful!
you're a beast, sir. Thank you
Thanks for the videos! They are super helpful!
I feel very well challenged by this wise thesis. Thank you!
Wow, very well put.. I was on the verge of beginning to use a system like this, but hearing you confirm how important it is has been very helpful. Thank you so much for posting this! Subbed and can't wait to get through the rest of your material.
Great stuff. Makes so much sense.
Inspirational, thanks
This is a causal inference lesson disguised as guitar practice advice. Good stuff.
Damn dude your videos are getting really. Not only from a teaching and presentation perspective - but an audience retention perspective. Those open loops though! Got me every time. :)
Really...?
This is such a good advice that transcends the music context. Practicing something while thinking "when will I ever be at that X point I proposed myself as a goal?" becomes very frustrating and produces so much anxiety. I think that seeing it this way will really help. Your approach to teaching is very smart, insightful and goes so deep, no just on the technique, but also in the psychological and intellectual aspect of the learning. Very valuable.
Exactly! I literally bought a daily planner after watching this video a while back. It's become extremely valuable.
(1) In "Edison" it would be possible to create and play Loops in Any Order we like. Example. Loops=(2, 6, 8, 1) or (12, 1, 3, 6.10,) and
cool vid!
As a senior and an artist in realism …and fashion illustration…pursuing ANATOMY was so incredibly INSUFFERABLE and so i always put it off. HAVING TO ONCE AGAIN PRACTICE THE “BORING” stuff in guitar once again brings me back to this DISCIPLINE IN EXCELLENCE that excellence actually comes from. Thanks once again for tips through this “ugly process”.
1:40 Damn, he's too good
Breathing always helps with my playing taking a moment to focus on my breath and synchronize it with my brain and playing
Okay I paused the video. Biggest improvement for myself is methodically using my (Sabine) Metronome--, starting at the painfully slow 42 bpm and then going down to 40 going up to 44bpm then coming back to my starting point of 42bpm. I repeat this method for each bpm until I get to 208 bpm...lot of times this will take several days...but by the time I get to 208...big improvement.
I think the best improvmant is the wanting to get better and playing with others
This guy is not aging
Agree. I saw some videos from 10 years ago? He Looks exactly the same
It's because I use directional picking.
What you practice and how you approach it
Note choice?
The Tony Robbins of guitar teaching!
My guess is planning your goal for each session
Damn even without the hint
My guess... a metronome.
Hey man! Any chance you could take a look at Stephen Taranto’s technique? He’s a machine
Your shirt changes color!
I have been studying psychology for about 10 years now, and microgoals are the most effective way to progress in anything. Especially if you have depression. By focusing on the progress and taking the smallest possible step towards becoming better(at anything), you always improve.
2 reasons:
1st, by completing a goal, your reward system keeps you driven.
2nd, by NOT failing your outlook, stays positive and stable.
In software development, this approach is called Agile. In manufacturing, Lean. Applying it to learning guitar (or pretty much anything) makes sense to me.
My guess was a mouthful of m&m’s and skittles (my favorite vitamins) washed down with a gallon of cheap energy drinks, .....but micro goals are ok too ! X🤘🏻X
Tune the guitar down from 440 to 416 using one of the free tuner apps and set it to Eflat. Want back to regular tuning? Capo at the first fret.
In short, set yourself realistic goals, and go about it gradually.
My guess is determination
01:30 Playing with a metronome?
hello mike, i feel like i cant play anything pleasing to my ears and thats true but why is that?! i feel like stuck...
2. if i take your course should it be consastatly paid or can i get your 1 hour session in month?!
Mike is a great teacher, and I recommend this channel to everyone, but I do want to be honest and share my experience that I started his course at the beginning of the year and the wait was nearly 3 months for the private session. I actually didn't get it at all as work returned from furlough and I had less time so decided it wasn't worth it with such infrequent contact (3 payments for 1 session). If the wait times were lower I imagine it would have been great but tbh I'd rather there was just an option to pay for the lesson.
Agreed. All those damn students keeping my calendar booked solid for 3 months like that is unacceptable. Somebody should stop them!
My guess is controlling tension.
Focus
My guess it is concentration.)
This is a great channel but you talk way too much sir. If I could make a small suggestion; get to the point and don't go into endless examples of for each point you want to make. Otherwise great info!
Seems to be a common problem. I often find myself shouting at my screen going " get to the fcuking point. I have a life."
I strongly disagree.
A lot of the videos that have been most useful for have been those presenting concepts, techniques, etc that I pretty much figured out for myself but becomes much more functional after a teacher fleshes out the details, mechanisms, and context. If they just get to the point I may not get much out of it. That said I often find myself agreeing with you and being frustrated at the pace. I figure the things that are boring and redundant to me are probably helping someone else. (I didn’t mean to talk that much.)
Visualization
Intention
Focus?.......I paused.
Too long video, gets boring....
