Well, here’s yet another viewpoint….. not different….. just “additional”…..
I think there’s more to it than just “playing guitar”. I see that as just the starting point.
Back in my working career as a utility power-lineman, the journeymen always told us (apprentices at the time)– “climbing a pole is good, but more importantly, you also have to know what to do when you get there….”.
Similarly, to me, being able to “play guitar” is great stuff……. but the real thing is what you do with that skill.
Do you wanna use that knowledge to write songs? Do you just wanna enjoy it as a hobby to keep to yourself? Do you wanna play campfire songs with friends and/or family? Do you wanna record or video your playing? Do you wanna perform live?…….. There’s just soooo many options.
Deciding your “end goal” is very important- (although as you grow, you may change it a few times!)
