I am starting to re-think my goal. Is it realistic that I will learn the entire song by the next week? Probably not. My goal now is to improve my rhythm and master the segment I’ve been practicing. One of the members in my 20Time House, George Porter, wrote about a app that helps you practice rhythm, called Yousician. I was curious to see if Yousician had a piano version, and it turns out they do! So this week I spent my time practicing rhythm by playing some of the Yousician activities. I think these activities helped my rhythm, but I have not included a video of my progress because I did not learn any new parts of the song. I’ll be posting week 5 shortly since I’m a little behind on my progress. Stay Tuned!
Last week I felt as though I had made some serious progress toward my goal. I felt more comfortable in my playing. Week 4 was a little different. It seemed like I didn’t make much progress from last week. I wouldn’t say I regressed, I just wished I had made more noticeable improvements. I am starting to re-think my goal.

Way to be honest with yourself, Megan. But something tells me you played better than you're giving yourself credit for. I remember listening to week one or twoof your project and thinking how well you were doing. Be sure to give yourself the credit due!!

I agree with Mary. I don't think you're giving yourself enough credit. You seemed to have picked up a lot in just a few weeks. Nevertheless, I know exactly what you mean. I felt like I hit a ceiling on my guitar playing progress, which is why I tried out Yousician. I'm eager to see where you're at in the program. Have you noticed you can only do a fixed number of activities before Yousician prompts you to pay for the "pro" version? Lately I've been playing until it forces me to stop unless I fork up $10/month. I'm glad you found something to facilitate your progress and I hope it's working for you. Good luck!
