Hello comrades and welcome to the second improvement megathread of October! bonfire

As usual, some discussion ideas:

  • Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
  • Do you have any goals or plans for next week?
  • Do you have any streaks? For example, "sober for one day." Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
  • If you don't have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
  • Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?

Poster caption: "Have you signed up as a volunteer?"

Good luck with your goals! unity

    Well shit lmao, I kinda take back my previous comment, classical guitar (and flamenco and nylon string stuff in general) is one of the few areas I don't really know what I'm talking about. oh-shit

    Segovia scale exercises and PIMA method finger picking technique guides are probably a good place to start. I can read music for piano and strings and know my theory pretty well, but I can't sight read or figure out in what position written classical guitar stuff is intended to be played for enharmonics across the fretboard and playing distant intervals across separate strings simultaneously in classical fingerstyle technique is a real "pat head and rub tummy at the same time" kind of coordination mixup for me, I pretty much only use fingerstyle playing as an add-on to plectrum playing with hybrid picking.
