Are You A Guitar Beginner? 3 Great Ways Of Making Your Guitar Practice Regime More Interesting!

Does this sound like you? 'I really want to learn the guitar, but practice is so boring"! You'll know, deep down inside that the only way you will master the instrument is by practice, practice, practice. But you also know that following the same old practice routine day in, day out is going to drive you crazy. So what are you going to do? Bite the bullet, and resign yourself to a tedious program of endless sessions playing the same few exercises over and over again? Or is there actually some way of making practice....FUN?

There's no doubt that a poor practice regime following the same guitar tutorials is going to de-motivate you, and so much that you might give up before you have had the chance to actually break through the barriers and make some decent progress. Certainly you do want to be setting time aside each day (30 minutes minimum) if you want to improve steadily. But doing the same thing each and every day may soon have you tearing your hair out. What you need to do is sit down before you have started regular practice, and plan precisely what you can do to make it more exciting. The following tips may help.

* You may be just beginning guitar, but get absolutely clear in your mind what your future aspirations are for your guitar playing. Do you want to do this for a hobby, or for something much more serious? Each time you practice make sure your short-term activity is fitting in with your overall long-term goals

* Whilst you should attempt to achieve the 30 minute practice target daily, be realistic about what other pressures on your time will allow you to do. If you have to miss the occasional day - don't beat your self up. Looking at your long-term goals will show you how important your guitar training is to your life. If you really want to, you will make changes to your life to allow room for daily guitar practice

* Variety is the spice of life - and guitar practice! Take time to set up a number of practice regimes that you can follow. Set up a plan for the week. For example, on day 1 you may simply want to practice some chord progressions, then on day 2 you could try to learn a new song (maybe using the progressions you used on day 1). Whatever you do, decide to dedicate each day to a certain activity so that you don't merely pick up the guitar every time you practice and keep simply going over old ground.

Now, not everyone who takes guitar tuition will require such methods. There are plenty of budding guitarists who like to religiously follow a training program, taking each exercise at it comes, and picking up where they left off each time they practice. But if you find it hard to get motivated, try using the tips above and hopefully you will learn to look forward to your practice sessions, rather than dread them.
