GMC Forum _ CHILL OUT _ Arrgh!

I have been practicing this lesson for the mtphttp://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Triads_in_Major_Scale_Series_Part_1/

I need to upload a rec take for the MTP by the end of today. But the chord change from C on strings 4, 5 and 6 to C on strings 3, 4 and 5 is proving tricky for me. Add to that the pressure of knowing that I need to do a reasonable take today makes it worse!!!!

Learning guitar is so frustrating at times

Ya mate, i had the same issue (but on different strings) ... but the time you have is quite less.. But you know what ... I'd say request some grace time from your Pedja .. PM him .. take another day and do it properly .. he'll not mind it, i think.. He wont post your next assignment till you get this done .. But hey , Im sure you'll nail it within a day or maybe even a few hours .. It's a matter of hearing that click in your head when you overcome these little frustrating nuisances and that may happen within an hour to a day..

I agree on zen, these datelines for Rec-takes should be taken serious, but hey, guitar is not your whole whole life and this pressure you make on yourself will not do good on you, so take a pause, make some party, sleep well and then start again practising, nobody will kill you if you post a take one day too late

Learning on pressure is never a good idea....... Take a break and try again later
