One thing I hear from my viewers is, "I'm not MOTIVATED" to practice.

The question is WHY? 

Maybe because you don't like the sounds you're making? You don't like the sounds you're making because you practice WRONG, which leads to getting STUCK and demotivated 

FOCUS is something few people can do in the age of social media. If you can't FOCUS, you won't have the ENERGY to IMPROVE

This goes deep....you need a clean diet, proper exercise, sleep, quality social connection and more to be HEALTHY

If you're not HEALTHY you won't have the ENERGY to FOCUS on Fingering Your G-String 🎸 

In this video, I came up with a short Neoclassical Cadence to work on Composition and guitar technique

I use this simple formula when practicing to make gains each time I play with my wood 🎸 

THEORY + TECHNIQUE = MUSIC

If you're just focused on technique, playing endless chromatic scales to get faster, it's no wonder you feel unmotivated!

That's boring AF and sounds like sh!t!

You can't just ignore technique tho.....and that's where my secret formula comes in

Become better at sweep picking, tapping and picking, while simultaneously leveling up as a composer and songwriter with counterpoint, harmonic minor cadences etc...

That's the strategy I use and I never feel UNMOTIVATED or STUCK.... I'm progressing at every practice session because I FOCUS on using my simple FORMULA 

I'd love to hear your thots on this topic and what your strategy is for practicing

I want each and everyone of your to become SHRED LORDS muhahaha

I need to get back into a regular exercise routine. I'm 61 and have a physical and mental job and I'm drained at the end of the day. I need to increase my energy/focus reserve.
