I did another rambling video on playing and learning guitar. The topic is something that I come across with myself but also if not daily then weekly in questions on my videos and social media. It is so often that people set a vague goal and then have trouble working their way towards it in any meaningful kind of way, and often just being aware and thinking like that can make the process much more efficient!

I go over how you need to get very specific about what you want to learn or achieve and how talk a bit about some concrete examples where this goes wrong and you end up practising things that are not necessarily helping you that much.

This video is just mean as an opener for a discussion of this subject which I think is important so if you have something to contribute then please do so via YouTube comments, all input is greatly appreciated!
