Lessons from the guitar itself!!

I started off with this instrument the same way a normal person does. Never thought i would go this far and learn something which i had never expected. Although this instrument appears to be lifeless but the lessons it imparts says a lot about its human character. There are few things this instrument conveys that i would like to share with you all. Lets see it succeeds in influencing your life.

Here it goes:

  • There are areas in which you are not born talented.
  • You cannot master anything in one day.
  • There are 3P's that you need to follow: Passion, Patience and Practice.
  • More time you spend on something, more you become better.
  • There is a way of doing certain things.
  • Good guidance always helps.
  • Be regular.
  • There is nothing in this world that you cannot do.
  • Keep an idol who is an icon in his field.
  • Everything of something is better than something of everything.
  • You should know whatever you are playing rather than play whatever you know.
  • Fruits of hardwork and patience are really sweet.
  • Dont play for others. Instead play for yourself. Then you'll definitely enjoy.
  • Respect standards.
  • Share whatever you know. All great people share.
These bullets would definitely help a person starting off with guitar. But it has a lot to comment on our lives as well.
