This is my first topic here so hello all! I've been playing piano actively for a little over year now. First I had significant progress almost every day, which I think is common when starting a new instrument. I practice about 2-3 hours per day. Now what frustrates me, is that my progress seems to go on cycles and not linearly. There may be 2 or 3 days when I'm progressing and playing feels wonderful, but then there usually comes a bad day or two and it feels like all my work has been wasted. It feels like I have to start near the point where I was before the good days. Is this common to other pianist also? Or do I just have bad learning methods? I'm completely self taught hence asking here.
