      I would love for you to play "Gee I'm glad it's raining" from Ernest Goes to camp. Your take on it would be amazing like all your work. I had a Daughter who was 18 months old that past away from a heart defect.She past in 2015. "Gee I'm glad it's raining" is kinda my song I listen to when she past away , that and Angle Flying to close to the ground. If you find the time please do "Gee I'm glad it's raining". I would love to hear it in you style. You are amazing.

    I'm so guilty of the comparison thing. In fact I've had those thoughts/feelings when watching your vids before haha. So it's truly comforting to know that even a player on your level isn't immune to those feelings of discouragement. Thanks man.

    1. Stop comparing yourself to others
    - if you find yourself comparing yourself to other guitarist instead of being inspired, do your best to just focus on *your* practice
    - take a break from watching/listening to other guitarists
    2. If you’re struggling to get in consistent practice, remove *quantity* from the equation
    - make guitar practice a non-negotiable part of your day, but when that becomes a struggle, don’t put a quantity on the amount of practice you have to do that day
    - your goal is to just play, whether that’s 1 min, 10, 30, etc.
    3. Focus on quality over quantity
    - set small, specific goals for each practice session
    - specific goals are concrete/measurable
    - use a 20 min focused/5 min rest interval, repeat until you’ve accomplished your goals for the session
    4. Make deadlines
    - set specific dates
    - tell others about your deadlines to stay accountable

    This is outstanding. I was a music major and used these very tips in my practice as well, then brought them to my other studies as my career took me away from music. For the past couple of months, I've been reinspired to pick up the guitar and start improving and recording music more, but somehow forgot how to "practice music" after all this time, even though I still use these techniques elsewhere. This video hits the nail on the head and is perfect for reminding me how to accomplish the musical goals I want to accomplish this year. Thank you for being an outstanding musician and teacher!

I've been struggling with motivation since I left uni and lost my jamming partner/teacher but found some inspiration from watching your videos, and now you've given some great ways for me to really get back into it. I recently started learning finger style guitar so my goal is by the end of the year I want to be able to play at least 4 full songs finger style, the first of which I started learning this week, The Sound Of Silence. Thank you not only for your music, but your desire to help all of us learning guitar as well. :)

  • @leejones9338
    @leejones9338 5 лет назад

    I agree with HenryZeno, I've not picked up my guitars for years (good 3-5 years) because of comparing myself to others, to the point when someones asks you "can you play", i used to say i'm OK, i'm still learning". Being self taught, i cant read music (thank god for tabs) which i guess didn't help. After watching 2-3 of your videos its inspired me to get in my attic and dig out my guitars. Defiantly get my sub, thank you.

  • @tonibourlon896
    @tonibourlon896 5 лет назад +4

    I bought your "Avengers: Infinity War" tab last year, and I'm STILL struggling with it. I wanted to develop better hand technique, like arpeggios & 4-fret stretch (my fingers are short!). So that's a carry-over goal from last year. This year's goal, inspired by your previous video, is to write a chord/melody arrangement to an old song I really like. Got the song, melody & key, so now I need to ffind the chords to play under the melody. Heavy stuff!

  • @simonschaaper95

  • @bradjohnson169
    @bradjohnson169 5 лет назад

    Good stuff Nathan! Just to add, I often have picked up the guitar feeling crappy. I have found that practice/playing makes the physical discomfort abate. This probably applies to... "I'm too tired to practice" thing as well. Thanks again.

  • @brianray8351
    @brianray8351 5 лет назад

    Last year, I did real well with the flamenco picking style (think Leonard Cohen's "The Stranger Song".). Now I'm looking to go in a jazzier direction, as far as development goes. It's going well so far! I've been watching a lot of Steely Dan guitar covers with chord by chord tabletures, and I've got some of those tasty "mu major" progressions down.
    I'm hoping that if I can keep this up, I can get some truly original songwriting going. That's a mission for the new decade, though.
