Hi Susan,

Welcome to the left hand guitar journey.  You are right about a left hand guitar feeling natural if you are truly left oriented.  You just gotta go with the flow!!!

I am in about a month now and have hit my first learning plateau.  I have trouble shifting from one chord to another.  It’s like how can you win a race if you can’t get out of first gear.  One of my friends has been playing for years and being around him when he is playing makes me feel pitiful.  I think this journey is gonna take a LONG time and LOTS of practice.

Keep me posted on your progress.

Pete
