Obsessive playing may not be the most time-efficient manner of improving ones playing but it does beat obsessive obsessing. There is no royal road to mastership in basically any endeavor.

forgive me but im not sure
what you mean

I only saw macs accordions
and a few others and the others
seemed like they dont know how
to help me as for example
https://accordionlove.com/
and he says it came quite easy
to him but if it was easy for him
I wouldnt think he is struggling
as much as I am or have come
across the same problems. (could
be incorrect and plan to email him)

Are you looking for a teacher or a commiserator?

im looking for someone
who can tell me all the stuff
ive asked so a teacher who
has figure this stuff out would
help. if someone has already
gotten pretty good without any
of these sort of problems then
although granted their technique
would obviously be great. I still
want to know whether to just play
or to think everything through , practice
problems etc. as said tried macs but no
response yet.

You are confusing teachers with experts. Because you apparently consider everybody completely incapable of teaching, you want someone who got exactly from where you stand to a better position in order to be able to do the same. But if you find someone like that, youll be much better off taking their teacher rather than themselves. A good teacher is one whose pupils surpass them. And I doubt youll be able to accept anybodys advice anyway. So far, you have shown very strong resistance to the idea that anybody could give any advice that applies to you.

Well, that really all you need. David McAfee, http://www.macsaccordion.com, is my teacher, and although I live close enough to him to take lessons at his studio, he does have students from all over the world. His teacher was Tony Lovello, if that means anything to you, and is an excellent accordion teacher

However, I do agree with another poster that your goal is not to learn to play the accordion for you seem to be a professional excuse maker

If you are wanting to carry on teaching yourself, then you probably need to do more practicing and less thinking, the difference between you and most of the good players is that they have had more practice and have practiced the right things.
Get a tutor book or a teacher and practice the right thing 4 hours a day and in 5 years you will be up with the good players
