I agree that hard work is the MAIN thing, coupled with being able to practice the RIGHT thing at the RIGHT time in your path. Not everyone gets that. I also feel that achieving a good sense of time is key.....some People just "get it" right away, others it takes a lot of work to develop that. And finally, as discussed in past, I feel certain skills need to be learned at a certain age....like learning to talk I think speed needs to be learned at a certain age or there will be limitations at later ages or stages of development. Doesn't mean you can't be very fast for example, but rather your potential is less than if you had learned that skill at a specific age range. Just my theory based on observation.

There is a great book called "Your Brain on Music"! I highly suggested it!


Thanks! I'll be reading that soon.

Talent exists, but is being overrated, as many here confirmed.

For one, talent isn´t too specific. It means that in terms of musical talent an indivividual, depending on environmental conditions could either develop little / zero musical ability, but mathematical ones instead, or none of the two.

Further, what we consider as talent isn´t determined at genetical stage only, but albeit decreasingly throughout one´s life.
Naturally, the earlier in life the more effective.

Thus, perceiving rich harmonies and versatile rhythm structures in fetal stage certainly won´t hurt, and hearing and observing a guitar playing father from early on as a little kid, like Paco did or Grisha, should be constructive as well.

And hwat I believe to be especially helpful is a seamless appearing performance of the idol. The easier it appears, the less blockage and stress may hinder the learning individual´s progress.

So, I conclude: Optimal should be good balance between technical demand / thus practical attention to ergonomical detail, yet without anxiety in the same time.

One thing that hasn´t yet fully conquered outdated pedagogics is the fact that will takes a second row, long behind imagination.
The more correctly detailed the picture in mind the easier it gets.
- Up to where you would even need only relatively little of will.

I've found over the years that if I have to learn something new on guitar, a phrase or chord sequence perhaps, thatI practise and practise it one day, then sleep on it, and the next day it has become much easier. Then it gets better over time. Problem is, as I get older this is less true! So maybe it's best not to try when you get older. Trouble is, I don't take easily to giving up[;)]
