Summary

You told yourself you'd be a guitar player this year. Have you met your goals and aspirations? Or are you guilty of telling yourself one of these 11 lies? Watch now to learn how to find progress again. Every year, thousands of people pick up the guitar. They dream of playing songs, solos, and licks that sounds like their guitar heroes. Every year, though, people give up on playing guitar or don't touch it for months on end. In this episode, we'll talk about what's going on when this happens. I've found that it most of this boils down to 11 common lies we tell ourselves. It can be something as small as saying you don't have "enough" time or as large as gatekeeping yourself. Whatever lie you tell yourself, I'll show you how to move beyond your pattern of self sabotage. This all sounds like a self-help seminar. In some ways, it is. But I stand by examining your obstacles and roadblocks to progress on guitar. Whether you've just started playing guitar or you've played for decades, there's plenty to learn in this episode, so be sure to watch the whole way through. You never know what you'll find!
