i find that when i start to drown in waves of unimaginative junk, its best for me to listen to tons of music, throw myself into musical projects that don't involve guitar, and just leave my guitar alone for some time.
so that's what i'm going to do!
i'll pick it up again as soon as i feel inspired. 
EDIT: fuck, i have to work tomorrow. i'll take a break after that. |
Thomas edison once said, "Many of life's failures are men who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up." Don't put so much pressure on yourself and keep playing. My favorite thing about guitar is that you get out of it exactly what you put into it. Just pick up and play and stop worrying about writing the next epic song. Sooner or later you will get the results your looking for.
