I really relate to this.

I tend to look at a song, work out the main riff or chorus. Then the verse, or sometimes the intro first if it is a Metallica song. Then a hard bit will come up that I can't play instantly. So I stop.

I find it so hard to just concentrate on one hard bit and it's a lack of patience, focus and discipline to go to myself, "It's not instant. You may have to work on it."

Any tips for overcoming difficult passages? eg do you set aside a certain period of practice per day and if so how long? I find it hard to stick with trying to learn something for more than say 2 days.
