Your First Year on Guitar: Make It Count
If you’re still in Year One of playing guitar, this is for you.
Fair warning, no sugarcoating in this post
Mistake #1: Chasing Quick Wins
It’s going to be tough in the beginning.
Your fingers will hurt.
Your playing won’t sound like music yet.
You might even wonder if you should quit.
That’s all part of the process.
Most people give up. You don’t have to be one of them. Stick it out. It gets better.

Mistake #2: Always Switching Gears
It’s easy to get distracted. New lessons, new songs, new shiny things to try. But progress comes from sticking to one clear goal. Work on it, repeat it, get it solid.
That’s how real players are made.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mistake #3: Doing It All Alone
“Self-taught” sounds cool until you realize it’s just the slow way.
You’re already part of a community.
Ask questions, post your progress, and support others.
You don’t have to figure this out on your own.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bottom line...
Your first year is the foundation.
If you show up consistently and focus on the right things,
You’ll build something that lasts a lifetime.
Keep strumming,
