The only thing is that when I concentrate real hard I can stop myself from making the mistakes. It sucks because it feels like I can never just relax and play. Ill practice picking correctly for like two hours straight then I dont have to think about it for a while. Then the next time I pick up the guitar Ill start messing up again. I dont always feel like watching my every picking motion. I probably just need more practice but Its frustrating and it makes me not want to play sometimes. If I dont rest my arm on the body I find it easier to do the right motion but my arm gets tired faster and it isnt as comfortable. Should I keep my arm away from the body? :confused:
