Definitely play songs that are above what you’re used to and keep challenging yourself. At the same time though, I don’t really recommend playing songs that are too difficult at the moment where you would mash random buttons since that won’t improve your skill level. As you improve and you get used to it, your hands will be more attuned and they’ll kind of automatically hit the arrows. If you have problems with reading, you can try to look at each arrow or pattern individually, but don’t overthink them. Also definitely don’t strain yourself and your hands. Remember to take breaks in between sessions and when your hands feel tired. It’ll take some time, but you’ll definitely see progress as you go on! Keep playing to improve, but most importantly, remember to have fun haha.
