Isn't it an old wisdom that you should practice what you want and not what you think makes you good? That way you develop into the best guitarist YOU can be...

Hmmm...maybe you misunderstood me, the reason I made this thread was because there were too many lessons I WANTED to learn, and that I was taking on too many at once and wasn't getting much out of it. And the main reason I learn the entire lesson is that playing the lesson along with the backing track helps my timing alot. I'm always trying to be the best I can be, that's why I joined this site after 8 months of playing guitar, to maximize my potential (and because it was free, but that's a different story).

hmmm... I guess my point was, you should think is it really the whole lesson that you what to learn or just a certain/a couple of licks/riffs/consepts of the lesson. But anyways it's a little pickle if theres so much to learn and so little time, but I guess learning a little piece of one lesson then moving to another, then coming back to the first lesson doesn't hurt you in anyway.
