(Tricks that will blow your mind)
Welcome to this playbook!
I left some topics out of this book (maybe for part 2) for I
know information overload leads to not taking action.
Simplicity is key.

Note that sharps and flats are not in the diagram for
aesthetic reasons but you can use the same shape to
play all simple minor chords.
See how the 6th and 5th strings are the same notes as
the 4th and 3rd?
We just fret the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd strings to play minor
chords, and the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th strings to create
majors.
Try this with the B chord. Even if you can't play it yet.
C-A-G-E-D
Hopefully, you understand that the open chords you
learned when starting out are not really chords.
And that you can move those shapes across the neck
to create other chords.
Imagine your
index finger was
the barre.

It is that simple.
Here are some cool and easy chord changes that won't
require your full attention.
For example:

The cool thing about this now is that you can bring that
memory up whenever and wherever you are.
Your brain won't know if it's real or not. Every time you
think of that perfect chord, you will be "practicing" it.
Let's explore some other topics.

For those critics out there, I understand you want to jump in and say
this is the C shape. It's ok. Relax.
Remember we could move that shape around?
Now any time you play this shape, you can play licks
around this shape and they will sound fantastic!
Find some cool licks to play around it and then use the
same chord shape to play a chord progression.
If you know the notes on the 6th string, you can use
the E shape chord to play any chord you want.
If you know the notes on the 5th string, you can use
the A shape chord to play any chord you want.
To conclude I would like to tell you a story of belief. Of
belief in one's self.
And I did.
