Summary

You know what happens when a sitcom does a clip show? On today's episode of Acoustic Tuesday, we're going down memory lane. This particular memory lane is six years long, with endless bits of wisdom sprinkled all along the way. There truly is no shortage of things to learn from the Acoustic Tuesday catalog. So, what's up with all the nostalgia? There are some changes coming to the Acoustic Tuesday show. But before you go through a period of change, it's nice to take stock of where you've been and where you are right now. Reflection is a practice in gratitude. It grounds you. It makes you remember why you do things in the first place. And when it comes to your guitar journey, reflection is most likely one of the best things you can do on a big-picture level. Because if you don't stop to smell the roses every once in a while, what are you gardening for? Think of this 6-year clip show as a reminder to reflect on your guitar journey. I've focused so much of my guitar journey on helping others achieve fun, focus, and progress in their playing. I'm not stopping any time soon. Things just might look different moving forward. Hey, who said change is bad? Featured in this episode...- @maneli

0:00.0	A walk down memory lane is in store for you on today's episode.
0:04.0	We're going to have a look back at some of the greatest moments of the Acoustic Tuesday show.
0:08.0	Plus, I have some big, big, big news.
0:12.0	You're going to want to stick around until the end of today's episode.
0:16.0	This was an extremely difficult task.
0:18.0	Going back through six years of the Acoustic Tuesday show and just cherry
0:22.3	picking a few highlights, it was very difficult. I could have easily had a list of 100 or more,
0:29.1	and then the show would be four hours long, and it's just way too long. So I'm just trying to
0:33.1	paint a broad brush stroke, or rather use a broad brush to paint the picture of the history
0:38.7	of the Acoustic Tuesday show. And it's really fun to do this. And I have to say that it's really
0:44.6	important to do this. It's important for me to do this with the show, but it's also important for
0:49.5	you to do this with your guitar journey so far. It's extremely critical that you take pause and look
0:57.2	back and see how far you've come. It's vital. You have to reflect to appreciate how much you've
1:03.6	grown because as guitar players, we're always so forward focused. What are we going to learn next?
1:08.1	What song? What technique? Et cetera. And that's great. Have those goals.
1:11.6	But always take pause to celebrate the fact that, hey, I started way back as a guitar baby.
1:18.6	And now I'm growing up. I'm growing into a guitar toddler. I'm growing into a guitar preteen.
1:23.6	It's just important to keep that into perspective because we can get so bogged down in where we want to go,
1:29.3	we never realize that we're actually doing a lot of really great work and we've already done a lot of really great work.
1:36.3	Great work, that's celebration worthy.
1:38.3	So I just wanted to make mention of that.
1:40.3	So this is just as important for me to do with the show as it is important for you to do with your guitar playing.
