Back At It

Was discouraged yesterday, but found myself going back at the piano today. Will stay with the method book. Why leave now just because it's getting more challenging? I WONDER WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF INSTEAD OF CHANGING WHEN TGE GOING GETS CHALLENGING, I STAY WITH IT? I can't be the only one who ever struggled with retaining chords (my biggest problem right now). It just needs the application of patience,  plus continued work, minus the loud mouthed internal critic and pessimist.
