new years resolution for playing

my news resolution is to stop practicing rasgueo for the next 6 months and do nothing but picado, arpeggios and tremolo and to work on pieces which contain all of these techs.

i got the oscar herrero dvds for xmas and i said to myself if i ever want to attain that level of virtuosity i need to have my fingers moving fast with each note being clear and distinctive.

for me those three techs above for me are not at the level they should be after 1yr at flamenco, so its back to the drawing board once again.
going to upload a solea i did last month in a coupld of days time to get some feedback.

henry, u got to be sick enough to practice 12 hours a day ,there's no need for a resolution.
My money are on disturbed people.Nobody is that sick , but watch a little Nunez every day(that always helps)....and u'll get that sick
