    Hi Mark. What you wrote really resonated. I’m going through a similar phase: kind of switched from total enthusiasm to apathy overnight. I’m doing the dailies and counting the minutes to 10 so I can move on. Surprising how many times you can play a lick in 10 minutes lol. I don’t really have advice because I’m in it as well but it helped me to read someone else going through it right now, so maybe that will help you too. Like you said, you see these posts periodically which means it’s normal, it happens, it passes. My plan is to wait until it passes while doing the daily 10 minutes and trust the passion will return. I try to listen to guitar music on spotify to remind myself why. My favorite youtube trainer (Sydney Cummings) says about workouts: “you won’t get better by only showing up on the days you’re motivated, you have to put in the work on the days you don’t feel like it as well. We can’t control motivation but we can control commitment and consistency.” I think there is a lot of truth to that in many aspects of life. So I do my 10 minutes.
