When I was age 7-12 and taking piano lessons, it was torture. At 16, with classical/folk guitar lessons, it was still a real slog, as I'd get very bored.

At age 50, when I took up piano lessons again, it was _so_ much easier. After 30 years of working, staying on-task for a 30-60 minute practice session was a piece of cake.

Also, a good teacher ($), a good instrument ($ to $$$), and a tolerant family all really help.
