Author: Hello to all,
Again I would like to say thanks for all of the comments. I would also like to address the following comment.
Hi – Ive got pentatonic power. SOrry to say I havent really got into it – I found there too much to get through each day and got discouraged.
I understand completely. I often have this same reaction, not only when it comes to learning the guitar, but in other areas as well.
It’s been about three years now since I wrote Pentatonic Power, but I have been using the material inside even longer. It is the same process that I went through several times and the same process I use with students. I know that it works.
Does it require discipline and commitment? It certainly does! When I think back on what kept me motivated it was the end I had in mind. I knew what I wanted to play and sound like so I has a set routine that I followed day in and day out. It’s the routine that ended up in Pentatonic Power and my new book to be released next week.
I would urge any of you that might have Pentatonic Power or any number of other great guitar books that are around that you might have to get them out, set aside some time each day and go for it.
I don’t know how long you have had Pentatonic Power but think of where you might be in your playing now if you had only stuck with it. Even if it takes three actual days to
complete one day in the book, so what? The reason that it works is because it is a consistent daily routine, but you have to do it!
We all want the magic pill, the guitar course that promises we will learn the guitar in 7 days or 60 seconds. It just doesn’t work that way. Your own experience with the guitar should tell you that. If it sounds to good to be true them it probably is.
I will wrap this up with a story. It’s about a lady that at the age of 52, decided she wanted to go back to school and become a lawyer. She of course received much grief and cynicism from her friends with comments like, “What do you want to do that for? When you get out of school in 4 years you will be 56 years old!”
Her response, “In 4 years I will be 56 either way.”
Look for a new lesson and video soon.
Best Wishes,
Bob

I have to say I wish that back when i started that there were more people like this to take the time and devotion to teach people who realy want to learn. As with all lessons practice, practice, practice, it is not just handed to you no matter what is taught, you still have to work for what you want, these lessons are the best and folling the steps ,plus take the time on a daily basis even if it means going over a days lesson 20 times it will still make you a much better player on any level. Just stick with it. In a year you will look back and say( Dam I did it.)
