On guitar:
Slowly, without looking at the neck or body of the guitar:
Pluck each string five times then advance to the next string. With each pluck use a different finger of your chord hand to advance one chord. For example; pluck open E, pluck again and use index finger to advance to F, pluck again and use middle finger to advance to Gb, pluck again and use ring finger to advance to G, pluck again and use your pinkie finger to play Ab. Shift hands to A string and repeat. Continue all the way down to the high E string. Reverse and work your way from bottom string to top string while also working your fingers from pinkie to index. DO NOT HURRY and make each note sound clearly. When you mess up, slow down and start from the top again. Once you build speed and can perform this exercise without mistakes, move four frets up the neck and start over.

This exercise teaches your hands the position of the strings and frets by feel so you aren't looking at the guitar all the time to see where your at or where you're wanting to go.
