That is also some great insight!! Thank you so much for sharing as this is something I’m sure a lot of us can relate to! The advice to remember to be ok with your skill level at the moment, knowing you will get better, but to also remember to HAVE FUN is valuable! Now of course this a double edge sword, as staying in your comfort zone and only playing songs or jamming only over blues progressions can be fun as well, and very few find struggling to grasp new concepts “fun.” So it cant be all fun. Like much of life its about finding the balance between challenging & growing your skills while still making sure to have fun and remember the reasons you picked up the guitar in the first place. I’m sure it wasn’t to learn scales and technical exercises! Which is a great reminder for me as this is what I do spend most of my time doing! This is why I’m trying to incorporate playing songs or jamming over chords as part of my practice, and saving this fun stuff for until the end after all my technical work. Thanks again for your experience and fantastic advice!
