Guitar Guru Reveals Secrets To Becoming A Virtuoso

CHICAGO - Nov. 10, 2014 - PRLog -- Hess says, “The majority of guitarists don’t really become great because they invest a lot of their time into thinking about what they would like to do rather than actually doing it. In the end, this is the telltale sign that they simply do not want it bad enough.”

He continues:

“It’s clear that by telling yourself “I’d like” to do something rather than actually taking action to do it, you leave the door wide open for all kinds of excuses to take control of your mind. As a result, mediocrity slowly takes over your guitar playing to the point that you almost never make any real progress. There’s a quote that goes: “If you want something, you’ll find a way…if you don’t want something, you’ll find an excuse.” Excuses will kill your musical dreams!”

Hess then goes onto explain a solution to these issues:

“Truth is, those who become great guitarists make a “choice” to do so. Determining the best things to practice is really not so hard - anyone can do it. The actual difference between truly great guitarists and so-so guitarists is the CHOICES they make. Their choices are essential products of wanting bad enough desire to achieve their goals, integrated with the big reasons behind their goals. Rather than submitting to excuses and laziness, challenge yourself to CHOOSE that which leads you down the path to greatness.”
