chris00: I started learning how to play not more than a month ago, just like you. It's been fairly easy so far - until I met the G chord. So I sympathize.

All of a sudden the flow I seemed to have came to a dead stop. In addition I noticed that trying for hours and hours actually made matters worse. So I tried this tactic: I just put away the guitar after half an hour and tried again the next day. And miraculously, a fresh start helped. I improved ever so slightly. I mean, after leaving it alone for a day or so, it became easier right of the bat the next day. As if by wonder. And even more the next day. In my experience learning how to play the guitar can be very frustrating at first and things can seem absolutely impossible. I remember how the Am chord seemed impossible to me early on. Now i do it without even thinking or looking. Even though I don't want to downplay your difficulties, I think most of our problems our in our own heads. Break up your practicing routines into smaller bits and don't get too ambitious for what you want to accomplish on any given day.

I wish you all the best!
