I had the same issue and I got past it by using connector chords. Yes I am aware that there is no connector from C to G but there is a common connector from Em to C and G. So what I did was to play those three chords using my Em connector until I built up the muscle memory in my fingers to just grab the G and the C solo.

Basically I knew I had a problem and one that was frustrating me to no end so using those three chords I just played out the chord progression Em C Em G over and over until I eventually could play the same chords but go to any one I wanted without having to use the connector. The point is to build your muscle memory but not riddle your play with frustration and defeat. So in my opinion endless grabbing for the G and C chord and tripping over your fingers is counter productive and not fun at all. Hope this helps and goodluck
God said to Abraham, “Kill me a son”
Abe says, “Man, you must be puttin’ me on”
God say, “No.” Abe say, “What?”
God say, “You can do what you want Abe, but
The next time you see me comin’ you better run”
Well Abe says, “Where do you want this killin’ done?”
God says, “Out on Highway 61”
