Here you`ll discover valuable little tidbits to help keep you motivated with learning and practicing guitar, so let`s get started

How to Avoid Guitar Practice Burnout:

1) Enjoy the process of learning guitar.

This sounds basic, but often beginner guitarist`s will focus on negative aspects about their guitar playing skill level. Instead of "beating yourself up" remember that all professional guitarists started off just like you. The truth is that learning guitar takes time, patience and practice.

Many people find that learning to play guitar using traditional methods is too difficult, overwhelming and time consuming. And because of this difficulty, many people give up on their dreams of learning to play guitar because the guitar learning techniques were inadequate.

Luckily though, now days you can get online guitar lessons that teach a new and revolutionary way to learn guitar that produces fast and effective results. These new guitar lesson techniques make learning guitar fun and easy. So, if learning guitar using traditional guitar methods is too difficult, or causing you too much frustration, know that there are new and improved ways to learn guitar that work extremely well.

3) Learn to practice guitar at your pace.

In learning to play guitar, you`ll discover that some days you`re more motivated than other days.

For example, some days you`ll feel like playing the guitar for hours on end, and at other times, you`ll only want to practice guitar for a few minutes. This is normal and if it`s one of your "off days" allow yourself to enjoy a break from a long practice section without feeling guilty.

4) Look to others for inspiration.

One of the best motivators in trying to achieve any goal, like learning guitar, is to look to other people for help and assistance. Consider joining a musicians group and online music forums where you can share tips, successes and troubles with other guitarists online.

Chances are, there will be another guitar player who has had the same problem you`re facing who can give you great

advice. Learning how other people achieved their guitar playing success, and the pitfalls they incountered along the way (and how to avoid them), will help tremendously to inspire and motivate you along the way while learning guitar.

Interview , July, 2005 by Annabel Tollman

Featuring a cross section of influential women dressed in Calvin Klein, Canadian rocker Bryan Adams`s third photography book, American Women, is a collaboration with the celebrated fashion house. Its proceeds will go to the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, benefitting its ongoing breast cancer research programs. From Hillary Rodham Clinton to Lindsay Lohan to Serena Williams, the thread connecting all these diverse American women is that they are known for excelling in their respective fields. Which is Adams`s favorite picture? "There`s something about the Lindsay Lohan shot--that forward-looking expression she has, like she`s looking into the future. Obviously her future`s really bright, but I also like the idea that there`s something in the future that could sort this disease out as well."
