If you are feeling disappointed playing the guitar because it seems too tough, here are a few guidelines to combat the frustration you may feel.
• Stop. Take Frequent Breaks
Playing the same wrong note over and over can make even the sanest, most patient person annoyed. That's okay. It's part of the learning method. Stop, give a deep breath and return. If that still doesn't help, it may be time to stop for the day and move on to something else and come back with a clear head. Going away from the guitar frequently can help build your sanity and bring your emotions back under control. Keep the guitar out of its case and keep it in plain site. It will inspire you to go back to it once the vibes strikes again. Playing guitar is supposed to be a fun activity. Obliging yourself to practice may seem like training and aid in annoyance if things do not sound right. If at any point it looses its fun, stop.
• "Write" Your Own Songs
If the songs you are performing are too complex, stop playing music already written. Once you have memorized the fret board, finger placement and chords, make up your own music. Most songs on alternative radio today are 3 chord songs in one key. With that in mind, take that thought and run wild with it. You can even draw out your own fret board and create your own way of recognizing notes and frets if you so desire. You will feel like a rock star and increase your confidence. This what makes playing the guitar that much more pleasurable.
• Go Back to the Basics
If your problem is finger placement, it may be time for a review. Have a look at a few self help videos or watch the experts. Mix these instruments with evaluating online diagrams of a fret board with dots and numbers presenting you where to place your fingers. If your difficulty is memorizing the chords, online diagrams may serve as a visual cue to help in recognition. You may also want to use the aid of any friends who may know how to perform or instructors to aid in the assessment of your success.
• Be Inspired
Watch concert videos of your favorite artists from past to present. Doing this will help keep you inspired and re-energize you if you are losing the motivation and the willingness to play. Listening to the radio aids in chord recognition if it is something you have mastered. Perform along with the radio. Buy or demo video games like Guitar Hero and Rock star. The video game versions use color and sound to notify you of the proper ways to play. This is a great instrument for visual beginners and may even help in evading the use of an instructor.
Having frequent breaks, writing your own songs and even video games like Guitar Hero can help make learning the guitar a more enjoyable experience and relieve frustrations.
