Are your difficulties with open chords or barre chords?
You may have seen my thread in the "ask a guitar tech" section where I ask about adjusting the action. The problem I'm having (and I've been playing for ~30 years) is barre chords. As I go up the neck, the action is very high and seems higher than it needs to be . This makes it difficult to play.
If you have having issues with open chords, I would go with cudgeler's suggestion of lighter strings. It is stock with 12's, so you could try 11's or even 10's.
In my googling, I have found that this guitar is known for having a higher action. Unfotunately adjusting the action on an acoustic isn't as straight forward as on an electric - you have to sand away material off the saddle.
