Practice Thought | Learn what easy feels like

Hi Everyone,
I gave this one two different titles because I couldn't decide which question would be more interesting for you:
These are important and weird questions:
"How should it feel to perform?"
"What does it feel like for something to be easy to play?"
They are also really difficult questions to answer!!!!
I'm trying to answer them anyway in this video because I want you to consider how YOU feel when you're playing music and you think you OUGHT to feel while you're playing music.
Learning what easy feels like is SO important if you want to keep making progress on guitar.
What do you think of the concepts in this video? Are you seeking difficult music before really getting comfortable with something easy?
Check out my other Practice Thoughts if you want more music mindset content.

Yes, for the first five years of playing guitar, I only played Tommy Emanuel's stuff. And then, after a month of not being able to play a song, I'd start the next project and never finish it. Now I make my own very simple songs, and I'm much happier.
