Hi Herb,

Kevin's got it down, to really get in time you need to sync your body up with a locked rhythm, like a metronome. If you don't have a guitar with you you can even practice by clapping or tapping to the radio, your CD/mp3 player, etc. This way you can work on it anytime..while you're on the way to work or anywhere you feel comfortable. My guitar teacher had me clap out the beats to music before he'd let me play them on the guitar and I think it's a helpful exercise.
