In the time I've been learning how to play this confounded instrument, I've noticed something kind of odd. As I approach a growth spurt so to speak, my picking kind of falls apart for a few days. It's sort of taking a step backward before taking two steps forward. I can tell just about every time my playing is going to advance. I know it sounds strange, and I'm not doing a great job of describing it, but it's noticeable when it happens. At first, I used to get upset when my playing would start to unravel for no good reason over a period of days, but now that I know what's coming after that, I get pretty fired up when I notice it happening.
Am I crazy, or has anyone else experienced this?
