Hey Tomasz, People don't quit guitar over hard chords. They quit over the pause between them. Play, stop, rebuild your fingers, play again. That stop-start is what makes it feel like you're not a real guitarist yet. Day 12 of the new course is a whole day on it. Today it's a game:  Two strums per chord, round the loop. Count your clean landings in sixty seconds. Write the number down. Most people's first score is somewhere in the teens. That number is your score, and tomorrow you beat it.  C to G is the hard one in this loop. No shared fingers, so the hand has to travel as a unit. Two rules do all the work. Move all your fingers at once, as one shape. And leave early: lift and travel on the second strum, not after it. The travel is part of the bar. Try it now: 4 minutes Round one: the loop, sixty seconds, count your clean landings. Shake your hand out, then round two. The pass mark: round two beats round one. The long game: around sixty clean changes a minute and no song's chords will scare you. That takes weeks. The game takes a minute a day. TOMORROW → back to the right hand for the small move that makes one guitar sound like two instruments. Day 12 of the new course is a switching drill on this exact loop: C, G, A minor 7, G, two strums each. See The New Course Picky, on the clock. Talk soon,
