I am a little over 2 years into learning the guitar. I practice every day, but don't work too hard at it. I have found what was mentioned above to work for me - start out slow, then build up speed. It is the repetition that gets your hands and fingers going where they need to go on their own. I only play 15 songs but I play them all twice a day. I only play for me. At 64 it takes a little longer to learn than when I was a pup, but the steady improvement is very satisfying.
