Started reading about stoicism and journaling in Jan and it has changed my outlook and behavior. My guitar playing has improved too! Read Meditations and am starting it again. Thank you.

Right on Craig.
It’s all about getting yourself into a daily or regular practice and making these small steps and goals without getting too much ahead of things in your head.
It will absolutely pay off.

Thanks for the comment.

Even if you’re a prodigy in the making, it requires dogged persistence to make any progress and you have to philosophical about the occasional nagging feeling that you’re actually going backwards. It’s also a great way of learning focus, patience and ‘stickability’ in life generally, too.

Hi Gedd,
How cool is that! Never tried the tenor guitar.
Whatever instrument you practice, just be consistent at it and things will start to flow after a while.
Enjoy it Gedd!
