The fear is so real. I was able to backflip for a while, but I bailed one hard and the fear got me. Now I can do it with a spotter, but on my own it's a no-no. It's so frustrating when you lose progress in your learning :c

The "dip"

It's interesting how much of quitting is mental and emotional. AWESOME celebration, btw! That's one of my favorite songs! When the song got to the place where someone shouts "Hey - hey!" I wanted to join in!

I wanted to learn how to play a song on the guitar, and my goal was to do it under a week. I've never touched an instrument with strings before, I can't read notes or anything but still, I did it. The key was satisfying myself with achieving small goals. Learn 1 or 2 chords and then connect them... 3...4... This gave me a shot of dopamine all the time which literally made me addicted to practicing playing. Sometimes when I took a break, and didn't play for a while, after the "nap time" I could play "perfectly" which I couldn't before burning out.

You inspire others including myself to improve and do better. Thx for the content!

This is actually incredibly helpful right now. Thank you so much

I found you on skillshare last night because I've taken up guitar and I can already tell this video will help a lot with staying consistent. thank you putting putting out resourceful content!

Mike Boyd. I love your videos and find them really entertaining, and ones like this are also very helpful! There is one video however in which you didn't complete the skill that you set out to do. This is your backflip video. Given that you've produced this video about learning how not to give up, I think you ought to try and complete the challenge of doing a backflip. I hope you take this challenge back up and good luck!

use a fidget spinner at full speed for the picking. - you're welcome.

Mike, your videos are always an inspiration to me, thank you! Your methodical and logical approach, and calming Scottish burr, provide a path to things I've previously thought were out of my reach. God bless you!

Thanks for this content Mike! I really appreciate how insightful and encouraging your channel is to the process of learning skills, many of which I would quit early on. I'm seriously reflecting on how to apply/re-apply these steps in my own life - thanks!

I haven't watched any of your recent videos (for 11-12 months or so) until today, but kept remembering the important tips. And they work! About a month ago I've signed up for a 10km run on June, 30th (5 weeks from now) and been training for couple of weeks, but didn't feel good about the progress. So I started practicing smarter: dropped the pace, started thinking about "now" more than "a kilometre away" and listening to myself, really properly tracking my progress, celebrating new records (HUGE help/motivator!!!) and sharing every success with a friend. I'm not a proper runner by any means, but over last 3 days ran 14,5km which feels great. Thank you for inspiration!

I started learning seriously about 6 months ago because of Mike. I was garbage for so long. I'm still not adept at most stuff, I can just finally do basic 4 chord stuff cleanly. Progress is slower than I expected but when you hit those moments of discovery and the way it all works together finally clicks it's a hell of a lot of fun. I hope you stick with it!

I want to be a professional artist and animator, and what I hate the most is that I have these amazing ideas, but when I try to draw them or animate them, I just suck and can't show them.
