Tomo Fujita Guitar Wisdom

I would really appreciate a little support after I have been conforted with negativity from some who don't like or think someone shouldn't persue their talents. How to deal with it? Thank you for your support

Here is Tomo's comment:

"Thanks for sharing this post. Unfortunately, no matter what you do, someone will have a rude or negative comment. But these commenters do not understand (or care about) the effect of their comments on you and your feelings. This is especially true online.

"I don’t ignore negative things. I acknowledge them, but I don’t pay too much attention. Instead of being upset, I feel thankful that someone actually cared enough to spend their valuable time on a comment. I always remind myself that I am still a student who needs to give a lot of attention to my musical foundation.

"So, I practice guitar every day. I always start with the 1212 chromatic fingering exercise for about 5 minutes. Then I practice R 3 7 swing groove with a metronome for 10 minutes. These 15 minutes every day build my confidence (and confidence does not grow naturally), so that the rude or negative comments of others do not matter."

Maybe some words of GaryVee help. He has always good points.
