*** #1 BEST SELLER IN OVER 50 CATEGORIES! ***
If you're a Self-Taught Guitarist and you want to play songs without spending all your time practicing, this book may be the most important book you ever read...
But first a warning: this book is NOT for everyone…This isn't one of those “practice until your fingers bleed“ or “cram confusing theory into your mind” type of guitar instruction books. There are plenty of those available (i.e. practice scales & exercises for hours per day and feel guilty if you don’t).
When I first decided to learn to play guitar, I read all the guitar books for beginners and focused on developing a lot of areas like scales, theory, and exercises that promised me one day I’d be able to play the songs I loved.
The problem is, when you approach practice like that, you have a lot of “stuff” to practice, but you usually have no REAL MUSIC to show for it, ending up with what I call Mountain Climber Syndrome. You feel like eventually, your hard work is going to pay off, everything will come together, and you’ll finally be able to play songs.
Why not play songs right away instead?
The simple, three-step system in this book requires a slight shift in the way you think about practicing, but leaves you with lots of songs, confidence, and a lifelong skill you can use any time you want to learn the songs you love ON DEMAND.
With that said, let’s jump right in…
Practice Less, Play More! is about getting immediate results from your guitar.
This means ONLY focusing on the things that help you play songs (both BEFORE practice & AFTER practice). The idea is to divide your guitar practice into 3 phases:
The first phase focuses on priming your mind so you have the right mindsets & techniques to learn songs quickly and all of the right materials to get the most out of your practice sessions.
The second phase focuses on practice technique, showing you exactly how to break a song down and quickly program each part into your fingers. Far too few guitar practice books explain this clearly!
The final phase focuses on the best mindsets & techniques to use when you switch out of Practice Mode and are actually playing songs, so you can play them as effortlessly as possible and have a blast doing it.
It is called “Practice Less, Play More!", because you are constantly building momentum (and your song Playlist) without having to endure hours of mind-numbing practice. It is actually an easier, less-stressful approach to playing guitar.
Not only that, this book shows you:
- How to get songs to performance-quality within days...
- You should practice guitar parts over & over until you master them, right? WRONG! (find out why in Chp 7)
- How to create a practice routine you enjoy and can actually stick to (even if you have a super busy schedule)
- When is the best time to practice for long-lasting results
- 5 ways to cut your practice time in half and virtually guarantee you make progress each time you pick up your guitar
- What to think about while you're playing songs (the answer may surprise you)
- How to reduce the amount of mistakes you make and exactly what to do when you make one (most Beginners are doing the opposite!)
- One practice method you should NEVER use if you want rapid results on guitar
- Say goodbye to guessing what to practice next and finally build a Playlist of songs you're proud to play on guitar!
