If you want to be a guitar player don’t go out and buy a ukulele.
Sure, it looks like a guitar- but it’s not.
You might say “But Justin! It’s a mini guitar, isn’t it a good place to start?”
Maybe- but I think if you want to be a guitar player, go and get a guitar.
Make the action match the goal.
If you want to be a novelist, don’t write once a month and wonder why it’s not happening for you.
A novelist writes every day, reads, researches, ideates, moulds, drafts, publishes… you get the point.
Make the action match the goal.
Where do you want to be? Don’t shortchange yourself by playing small. There’s already a fair distance between where you are and where you’re going.
Don’t increase the distance by getting a ukulele.
Get the guitar. Play full out. Act as if you’re there now. You’ll be immediately closer.
