This week I had to make some modification to what I was trying to learn. I spent a good amount of time last week trying to learn the next portion of the Jack Johnson song with little to no improvement. The notes were just to hard. I have such a limited understanding of how to play and how to move my hands it became frustrating. I was able to find a new song that was simplified to a level that will increase my chance of being successful. Thanks for watching!!

I believe a big part in feeling good about yourself is managing expectations. The change in song is probably a good idea. I love that the motivation is romance. That is a good motivation. Keep up the practice and learning.

Great song! You're right - the tune comes through, right away. A great story, too! Your wife is going to love it! I know it's frustrating having to change part-way through, but I think that's part of the idea of the project - playing and adjusting as you go, to figure out what you can do. Keep up the good work!
