This is hard, its going to take years, i quit. Sounds just like school
This is sooo true
Fender play was not available in my country :(
I just stopped quitting quitting
I want to be a professional artist and animator, and what I hate the most is that I have these amazing ideas, but when I try to draw them or animate them, I just suck and can't show them.
We often are trying to squeeze one more thing into an already full life-to say nothing of a day. Schedule should be #6. Put it in your calendar. Make time, set a time, don’t let anything displace that time. Avoid excuses for procrastination.
I'm an aries
i just quit watching this episode
This is the type of thing that should be the most important thing they teach you in school. I mean come on, 13 years of learning and they don't even teach you how to learn.
before he starts does it better then ever ill do: "I can't do it yet"
I think Mike might have perfect pitch.......
tl; dr : don't
Hes proficient at guitar my ass
Something else: Dick Dale, was a lefty, not that interesting, until you know the he played a standard guitar, with standard stringing, so his high strings and low strings were switched. So his speed came from the fact that it was all his wrist, he didn't move his arm at all.
I'm sure getting a couple grand per vid also helps
Today I've learned how not to quit or stop at
The real answer: just don’t start things
I quit watching this video. It didn’t help lol
congrats! you quit quitting
If I indeed implement the video and quit quitting, does it make the video successful or not? Because yeah, I quit quitting, but I keep quitting by quitting quitting
Wait, isnt it a song of the black eyed peaz?
"It's insane, it's 170 bpm" Metal guitarists: Watch, mortal
Thanks i needed this
How to quit quitting
Anyone else notice the pickups on the guitar are changed from when he built it ?
Anyone else can’t even watch through an entire video?
170 bpm is too fast! 170 / 60 = 2.8333333333333 you would suck at 1.8 pvp bro
You're one of the coolest guys on LVworld, for sure. You are an inspiration!
Came back for the song you learn to play
I wanted to learn inline skating since 2017, but despite being shy as fuck I couldn't tell my parents, not until a week ago. (Progress finally) Now since I dropped out of my high technical school to study something less mind puzzling, because I discovered that I have ADHD surprisingly (Thanks Dad!), I can't find an apprenticeship I need to enroll in this new school. Either I suck at the life, or the life is screwing me up. Idk. PS: It took me 30 minutes to write this comment since I pressed the TAB key 3 times and I almost quitted writing it. PS NR.2: I had diarrhea in the middle of writing it.
this shit doesnt work
Build abs
'It's a super fast song with 160 bpm and I have to develop some muscle' If you're struggling kid, wait until you try to play Disposable Heroes by Metallica
So how about that backflip?
Thank you
Why does learning have to be so hard and take so much time. Ibdobt have patience for that
I tried stop quiting but couldn't help quiting that video.
Your channel in general is an inspiration and the fact you realize how this works adds even more credibility! Thank you!
I watched 1-2 minutes of this video, added it to watch later and came to it roughly 8 months later
You should start doing something in the first place to face quiting as a solvable problem
I'm gonna learn to play that song.
If you're socially anxious and would rather swallow a pinecone than dissapoint someone, tell someone "Im gonna start doing ,(thing), so expect to see me do it." Telling them that you'll show them helps.
Mike you will never read this comment but i saw this video 1 year ago and i told myself: come on i dont need that video i never quit. 1 month later i quit my school basketball team because the training was too hard. 2 months after this i joined a less better team to just get started. I became one of the best in the team so i left and fortunately they accepted me back. IN 3 months i am leaving from greece to go play for a big college team in calabassas in my dream university. What i want to say is never give up on your dreams it takes a lot of hard work to succeed but at the end of the day it is totally worth it guys. DONT QUIT YOU BLOODY LOSER
How many days did it take for you to learn to play a guitar?
I swear it’s call pump it
before starting the video, i tried not to quit watching this video :)
how many days did it take to make trumpeter appear?
I love rango :)
170 bpm
How to quit quiting, ahh yes
every game that didn’t save: 👆
Make a video on how to quit binging your videos.
what a shame you use a pick 🙂
i think the #1 reason he never quits at most these things is bcus hes earning money if he manages to do it
I wanted to watch the whole video but i also quitted that
I am 12 and can play guitar at 180BPM its soooooo easy
2:00 Me who knows it from The Impossible Quiz: Pathetic
On a guitar ? That’s a bass
I can’t even finish this video :(
“STOP BEING A LITTLE BITCH AND PICK UP THE GUITAR YOU FOOL.” 🤣🤣💀 got me dead
Good job Mike
This vids name shldve been “how to quit quiting” 😂
do a backflip
Everything you acted and said happened with me all the time. I became so frustrated and left. Thanks this is the ultimate thing❤️ Glad that I clicked over.
Better title is, how to quit quitting.
I've been playing piano in an eccentric way for 1 month now, I keep on skipping my routine due to the difficulty of the piano pieces I try to learn, I almost quitted when I tried to practice Waltz in B minor
I cry too easy when I’m frustrated makes me wanna die bc I’m no good for nothing
Ok mike, can you stop quitting the BaCKfliP¿
I really wanted to stop quitting everything but the video was too long so i quit it
As a struggling acoustic player you've inspired me to finally tackle the song I've always wanted to play but never could. Great vid dude
Funny as that's exactly what I wanna play!!!
"practice smart" Big brain!
Dude if you quit so many times but still learnt so many thinks, how many skills did you start doing man?
I quitted the video
This would make a good Ted talk
Man just do that f*cking back flip
Who else thought HUH HUH HAAAAAAAA when the music started playing😂😂😂
grindd
You should try to pick more from your wrist and not your forearm. Your forearm will get tired much much quicker
hey just saw this but man this helps. always i want to quit but all id have to do was pace myself and stay positive? not my strong suit but it works. from this i learned how to cook as a living without knowing I was. i did the same thing on my own a while ago i was passionate and willing to learn the craft and now 4-5 years later i can keep up with a busy line with 10-20 tickets on the board and put out some amazing food. You sir are a saint among men put here to say "you can do ANYTHING just F*****G TRY!!! mike i know you wont see this but pls HI
Master of puppets is 212 bpm
Difficult to tell how many people liked the video for the content and how many for the Pulp Fiction tune😅
Does this also count for anime? 😂👍
His first try was good
Isn't that pump it by the black eye peas
10:32
Suddenly! Trumpet man!
I have a tip for you Mike I noticed that when playing this song you pick by swinging your whole arm and keeping your hand rigid. When I learnt to play this I found that resting the edge of your hand on the bridge and pivoting your wrist can save energy and allow you to get up to speed with less effort. This worked for me but hey, we all have different methods!! 👍👍
im gonna start playing the electric guitar in july and im much more motivated now that I've watched this video!
Any intps?
How I stop quitting is stupidity and stubbornness
tremolo picking without resting your hand on the body is quite tough
This is literally the definition of my life I tried for a week and then gave up.
Can you loop a sailboard yet Mike? Why not?
I don't understand that u say I learned 50 skills from "scratch" I don't understand the scratch
I use pomodoro to study
I'm a natural born quitter. It used to really upset me, but now I plan my life around the fact that I'm more than 90% likely to give up on anything new I try. It saves me tons of time and money.
The easiest way to learn guitar is Marty Music
What movie is this?
