Thinking competency

I used to think that learning to play guitar was hard but now I know that it is easy if you put the work in. I know this because I have learned to strum bar chords, at first I could only make a sound that resembled a dead car. Over time I was able to play them well and at an O.K speed. Then I learned about Tabs…

One thing that gets me thinking about why I wanted to play guitar is when I think about feelings and stories, I end up thinking to myself and I wonder if I could represent them in sound. One example is when we had to make our own strumming pattern. I attempted to sort of Tell a tale of an epic journey I don’t know if anyone picked up on it but I thought I did well.

I try to keep my mind open to new ways to play guitar, because I feel that most ways of playing have some merit because they could make a challenging thing easy or they could make it more fun to play it. It is all ways a good idea to try a new way because it could open new doors of opportunity. Of course, some ways my not work well, like using only one finger on each hand to play a Tabs piece, so you should all so think about how well it would work.
