Frustration is the child of expectation. Expectation is often confused with Desire. We want to be able to play guitar, and perhaps think that if we WORK at it hard enough, the results will come. There is a kernel of truth there, however, one aspect that should not be overlooked is the term PLAY. Treat the entire process as your chance to PLAY - when you play something, you just have fun, you don't expect anything in return. The act of playing means a repeatable activity that you enjoy, and will do again and again - and there is the secret!

Good guitarists have been at it for YEARS (read that a couple of times). What is the rush? Enjoy the process, you are on no ones timetable except your own.

Time, patience and practice are the keys to the kingdom. Proper goal setting is the path. Inspire rather than perspire, practice rather than work. Use your time to play and enjoy. The beginning of any interest can be difficult if you expect results right away - throw that yoke off - expect nothing and give everything.

On the technical side, chord fingering can be tricky. I would concentrate on the quality of sound of each chord before I tried putting them together. Make sure each is solid, with a well formed shape and that the fingering is correct - (pad of each finger rather than nails etc).

Use the GT Core Learning System and start from the beginning (Level 1 Guitar Fundamentals) - all the answers are in there. Go at your own pace and let the lessons answer your questions and provide the tips and tricks to help you learn. If you know something, review it or skip ahead to what you think you need - but I recommend following the syllabus as outlined and you should be good to go. Good luck!
