Plenty of practice is what you need to do. Get into it. Put aside a month or something and try to play and write or whatever 12 hours a day.

Any Monkey is talking about the easy days. Work VERY hard at it. You need to try catching up with the folks who have been doing it all their lives. Learn from others but most of all, just work hard at it. The good news is that it's very enjoyable so the time passes quickly. We wish you the best of luck.

This was SUPPOSED to say "And Monkey Allen is talking about the easy days."

Sorry for the typo.

Unrelated, but you might wanna look into getting a new keyboard (computer, not music). It appears your ".", "h", and caps keys are on the fritz.
