So i started learning guitar at the beginning of this year, and I didn’t worry about how good I was, and I just played and had a lot of fun. I really want to become a famous YouTube someday and I am not even having fun anymore I just want to be good at it😔 and i watch other videos and feel like I’m never going to be good. I just want to have fun playing and I’m trying to learn online but It’s so hard to get better because it’s not always the same person teaching you, it’s just a bunch of different people so I’m so lost 😞 please help

And if anyone knows/has videos that are motivational and make you stop worrying about being famous or something like that. One more thing, I heard a guitar tricks ad and it says that if you start playing guitar online or start learning the wrong techniques you can’t fix the mistakes, i really just want to stop worrying about being famous.

You learn finger picking over time. And you shouldn't be pushing your self to be good. You're not going to get any better than if you're just having fun. Practice tons and keep a positive attitude! I've been playing guitar for a year now, and the important part if don't beat yourself up and just have FUN!!! I hope I've helped some.

I have been playing the guitar for 5 years and I still make many mistakes. However I always enjoy playing the guitar and when I don't, I just take a break. Remember that playing the guitar is not as a typical school lesson but its your companion, your friend. Never stop practicing and you will soon get much better, I promise. Three tricks that you could do:
•Creat a schedule. For example you could say to yourself that you would play the guitar three times per week for 1-2 hours, I think it's enough but it depends on you.
•Set goals like until Christmas to learn 5 more tabs for example.
•Always play songs that you like and you will surely find motivation and spend more time on playing the guitar.
As for becoming a YouTuber you have many years to improve, remember all YouTuber guitarists are professional (or they should be). When you learn the basics you could also go to a conservatoire to get professional help and advice. This will help you improve your guitar skills!
That was what I had to tell you ( except if I forgot something 😆). Hope I helped you a bit boost your motivation. Don't hesitate to ask me if you want more help ❤️

I hope you get better at it! unfortunately I have to learn to play the guitar for school since when I picked music as a course I thought I'd be able to learn the clarinet. I hate it so far idk how people do it

@2006_Mandy thanks! You should keep trying, like don’t do it if you don’t like it but if you keep doing it it gets really fun! It’s difficult at first and I don’t even know much about it and I’ve been playing for months now. It does hurt your fingers sometimes at least at the beginning now it doesn’t really hurt but I don’t do things that are really hard. I like to learn songs on YouTube and write down the chords I am supposed to play, the strumming patterns, and the lyrics and write when I am supposed to switch chords if that makes sense (idk if you know what that means because I don’t know how far you are in guitar)

@2006_Mandy You could talk to your teacher and tell them what you want to play. I'd bet they would be happy to help! Try to have fun with it. It's just takes practice. A lot of it. Even the best players make mistakes and want to chuck the guitar across the countryside, I'm sure. For the first few weeks, I was ready to throw the guitar into the pacific sea on the other side of the USA. Maybe you could watch YouTube videos at home for beginners at home. Try what works best for you.

HI! I love guitar and I think you should take your time. Set goals for yourself and don't give up. Make sure you find the right teacher. Youtube videos are no help until you can already play moderately well. If you want to be famous consider writing originals but start off with covers. Also a website I always use is Ultimate guitar.com. Try to play songs you like and keep yourself interested. You got this! 👍
