Answer

I’m going to tell you about a skill that takes a long time to learn, and that is playing a
musical instrument, or more specifically, playing the guitar. There are many ways you
can learn to play the guitar but I guess the most common way is to get guitar lessons
from a guitar teacher. I think you can find a guitar teacher in just about any town or
city because it’s probably one of the most popular musical instruments to learn. And if
you can’t find a teacher nearby where you live, then there are tons of online learning
resources that you can learn from. Personally, I think learning with a teacher in a face to
face lesson is probably the most effective but expensive method. But if you can’t afford
private lessons, there are many cheap or even free websites to learn from.
Learning to play the guitar is something that takes a long time because there are many
aspects involved. For example, you must learn some basic music theories about notes,
chords, and rhythm, among many other things. Then you must learn how to apply that
knowledge to the guitar, for example, you must know where all the notes are on the
guitar and what notes to play when you want to play a specific chord. And lastly, you
must be able to actually physically play those notes and chords, with rhythm. Playing
the guitar involves both your hands doing different things at the same time, which can
be very difficult to become good at and takes a lot of practise. Actually, at first it is very
difficult to play something on the guitar that actually sounds good, and many people
give up quickly because they lose motivation when they can’t see any improvement
in a short period of time. But, like any skill worth knowing, you must understand that
practice makes perfect.
I guess some people would say that this skill isn’t really beneficial for the future, but I
would say that music is an important part of most people’s lives. So, whether you can
play the guitar, or if you simply love to listen to music, then probably sometimes in the
future, your guitar or someone else’s guitar is going to have some kind of positive affect
on your and other people’s mood or emotions.

Why does it take a lot of time to learn a skill?
Answer
Well, I think it normally takes a long time to learn a new skill simply because it takes time for our brains and our bodies to adapt to the new skill we are trying to learn. For example, when you want to learn how to play the guitar, it takes quite a long time before the muscles in your hands and fingers are developed enough to be able to move quickly and precisely in order for you to be able to press the correct strings in the correct place to play the sounds you want the guitar to make. So, basically it just takes time because our brains and bodies need time to adapt to the new skill, but some people can adapt faster than others at different skills
Is it important to learn a new skill?
Answer
Definitely. I think life is about learning. So, if you are not learning and practising a new skill then probably you are not challenging yourself, and you might even find life a little boring. I think in order to have a fulfilling life, it is important to learn new skills all the time.
What do people feel when they have to wait?
Answer
Well, everyone is different I guess. Some people have more patience than others, so probably they feel fine when they have to wait, while some people can be very impatient and probably get very frustrated when they have to wait for a long time. I guess it just depends on what they are waiting for and how long they have to wait.
What do young people and old people do while waiting?
Answer
Well, I suppose that most young people just spend time staring at their smartphone when they have to wait for something, scrolling through their Facebook newsfeed, while elderly people probably tend to have a conversation with each other, talk about the weather, or read the news. Actually I really don’t have any clear idea what old people do while waiting for something.
