I'm too excited to write anything right now, but I'll try. I've been training speed for some months now, and I was able to see some results. However, I lacked the faith in myself and therefore I wasn't able to develop myself to the fullest.

Yesterday I woke up, grabbed my guitar and kind of felt that "hey, this could work", so I tried it out. I put the metronome at 160 bpm, 25 bpm higher than I was previously able to play... and it worked! It was actually easy for me.

It was then that I realized that hard work is needed to play fast, but it is also the feeling of playing fast, the faith in your accuracy and handspeed. smile.gif
